Szczeponek P, Goebel M, Włodarczyk A, Królikowski Z, Gierlotka M. Electrocardiographic, angiographic and clinical picture of acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation caused by simultaneous occlusion of right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery. Case Study Case Rep. 2018; 8(3): 64 - 68.

ABSTRACT                                                                                           

Acute myocardial infraction with ST-segment elevation (STEMI) is most often caused by the occlusion of only one large epicardial artery. Simultaneous thrombosis of two or more coronary arteries is a rare cause of STEMI. In this article, the authors present a case of a 56-year-old man with STEMI who was diagnosed with simultaneous occlusion of the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery.

Keywords: acute myocardial infarction; STEMI; simultaneous thrombosis of two coronary arteries
