Abstract:
Calcified nodules (CNs) represent the least common cause of acute coronary syndrome. Furthermore, case reports describing CNs as the underlying cause for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction are exceptional. We present a patient with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction caused by a CN and outline the corresponding diagnostic angiographic and intracoronary imaging findings.
