One patient-many faces of myocardial ischaemia

Abstract

We present the case of a woman treated with coronary angioplasty due to non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, then again because of restenosis, who continued to complain of chest pain and syncope. Holter electrocardiogram recording revealed atrioventricular block related to ST-segment elevations and variant angina was diagnosed. Despite administered medications, the patient required pacemaker implantation. © Polskie Towarzystwo Kardiologiczne.
