Abstract
We present a unique clinical scenario of a 58-year-old male with a past medical history of hypertension who initially presented with chest pain and was ruled in for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) but rapidly developed respiratory failure secondary to aortic insufficiency complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS), attributed to aortic valve prolapse. Intriguingly, the patient had a normal ECG on presentation, underscoring the dynamic nature of valvular pathology. The development of CS highlights the importance of early recognition, prompt diagnosis, and interdisciplinary management in such complex cases.
