She had a prior history of "NSTEMI" one month ago, during which she had a coronary angiogram reportedly showing no stenosis in any coronary artery. Electromechanical association: a subtle electrocardiogram artifact. Her vitals were within normal limits. Acute chest pain and a bizarre ECG Bizarre (Hyperacute??)

Cardiology felt her chest pain to be, most likely, the result of coronary supply-demand mismatch in the context of HCM endothelial remodeling (i.e. Type II MI), however decided to pursue coronary angiogram out of an abundance of caution. A mid-LAD culprit lesion was identified and stented. Pacing Clin Electrophysiol.

Cardiology admitted him for observation with plans for next-day coronary angiogram. Unfortunately, due to the patient’s abrupt exodus from the PCI center – without benefit of coronary angiogram, or echo, for example – the disposition will forever remain unknown.
