Abstract

Cardiac troponins have high clinical sensitivity and specificity for the detection of myocardial injury. Elevated cardiac troponin levels may also occur in non cardiovascular conditions, leading to a misdiagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. In this paper, we report a case of unexplained isolated elevation of troponin.

Özet

Kardiyak troponinler miyokart enfarktüsü tanısında yüksek duyarlık ve özgüllüğe sahiptir. Yüksek troponin seviyeleri bazen kalp dışı nedenlerle ortaya çıkar ve yanlışlıkla akut koroner sendrom tanısı konulabilir. Bu çalışmada izole troponin yüksekliği saptanmış bir olguyu sunuyoruz.
