Acute coronary syndrome is an uncommon complication in patients with infective endocarditis, either in the acute phase of infection or later in the course. We describe a case of unusual presentation of infective endocarditis as ST-elevation myocardial infarction secondary to coronary embolization from mitral valve endocarditis.
急性冠状动脉综合征是感染性心内膜炎患者中一种不常见的并发症,无论是在感染的急性期还是在病程后期。我们描述了一例不寻常表现的感染性心内膜炎病例,该病例表现为二尖瓣心内膜炎继发冠状动脉栓塞导致的ST段抬高型心肌梗死。
