Abstract

A 73 year-old lady with hypertension and chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) developed chest pain followed by ventricular fibrillation (VF) cardiac arrest. Her electrocardiogram post-cardioversion revealed inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI). Her coronary arteries were angiographically normal. Contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance(CE-CMR) demonstrated both an inferior subendocardial infarction and left atrial (LA) appendage thrombus suggesting cardioembolism as the most likely cause of her presentation.
