Abstract:

We present a case report of a patient with acute chest pain and transient ST-segment elevation. Emergency coronary angiography excluded significant coronary artery obstruction and hence the tentative diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction with Non Obstructive Coronary Arteries (MINOCA) was made. The following diagnostic work-up highlights the importance of a standardized approach to patients with MINOCA.

Keywords:

Chest pain; Acute coronary syndrome; Coronary angiography; MR sequences
