Abstract

We present the case of a 35-year-old man with ST-elevation lateral wall myocardial infarction and Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) from a ruptured aneurysm of the Anterior Cerebral Artery (ACA). Before the stroke was diagnosed, Electrocardiography (ECG) was performed, which showed changes characteristic of lateral wall ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Therefore, coronary angiography was carried out, revealing no stenotic lesions in the coronary arteries. Myocardial necrosis was confirmed by high troponin I levels and akinesia of lateral wall segments found in echocardiography examination. Once SAH was diagnosed, percutaneous embolization of the aneurysm was performed. Despite all the medical interventions undertaken, the patient died.
