Myocardial infarction in a pregnant woman revealing a transitional deficit in protein S: a rare case report.

The occurrence of myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction in pregnancy is relatively rare, the occurrence of myocardial infarction in pregnancy is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. The deficiency of coagulation regulatory systems in the occurrence of venous thrombosis is well established; however, their role in arterial thrombosis is controversial. Here, we present an interesting case of a 34-year-old of acute myocardial syndrome without persistent ST segment elevation, which revealed transient protein S deficiency. Management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during pregnancy may represent a unique clinical challenge. In this manuscript, we review the clinical presentation, anatomic considerations, and management strategy in our patient presenting with ACS. Objective: this case highlights the importance of multimodality approach to help to obtain a more timely diagnosis of myocardial infarction in pregnancy and the importance collaboration between obstetricians, cardiologists, pediatricians and anesthesiologists to ensure optimal care.
