Abstract

Introduction: Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a relatively novel clinical puzzle characterized by limited research. Case Report: In this case, we aimed to present the co-occurrence of methanol poisoning and MINOCA syndrome. This case demonstrates the importance of monitoring cardiac function with electrocardiography and cardiac biomarkers in patients within a high anion gap metabolic acidosis environment. Conclusion: This case report is showing co-occurrences of MINOCA syndrome with methanol poisoning. This report is the first case of myocardial infarction in non-obstructive coronary arteries associated with methanol poisoning accompanied by high anion gap metabolic acidosis in the literature.

Özet

Giriş: Tıkayıcı koroner arter hastalığı olmaksızın gelişen miyokart enfarktüsü (MINOCA), sınırlı bilgiler ile karakterize yeni bir klinik bulmacadır. Olgu: Bu olguda, metanol zehirlenmesi ve MINOCA sendromunun birlikteliğini sunmayı amaçladık. Bu olgu, yüksek anyon açıklı metabolik asidozu olan hastalarda kardiyak fonksiyonunun elektrokardiyografi ve kardiyak biyobelirteçler ile izlenmesinin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Sonuç: Bu vaka raporu, MINOCA sendromunun metanol zehirlenmesiyle birlikteliğini göstermektedir. Olgu, yüksek anyon açıklı metabolik asidozla birlikte görülen metanol zehirlenmesiyle ilişkili ilk MINOCA vakasıdır.
