In this case report, we presented a case of carbonmonoxide posioning leading to acute myocardial infarction in a coronary artery disease patient.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease is the leading cause of myocardial ischemia.
📊
Key Findings & Data:In clinical practice, other triggering factors should also be kept in mind which may precipitate myocardial ischemia in coronary artery disease patients.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:In this case report, we presented a case of carbonmonoxide posioning leading to acute myocardial infarction in a coronary artery disease patient.

Özet
Miyokardiyal iskeminin primer nedeni, koroner arterlerin aterosklerotik lezyonlarıdır. Klinikte, zeminde koroner arter hastalığının olduğunu bildiğimiz hastalarda, karbonmonoksit gibi tetikleyici faktörlerde gözönünde bulundurulmalıdır. Bu yazıda, karbonmonooksit zehirlenmesi sonrası akut miyokard infarktüsü ile başvuran bir olguyu tanımladık.
