Key Clinical Message:
The case highlights the imperative requirement for multidisciplinary action in handling a myocardial infarction case, complicated by rare and severe events like ventricular tachycardia, stent thrombosis, hypoxic brain injury, and multi-organ failure.
Abstract:
This article presents a case of a 53-year-old male, who presented with myocardial infarction that was managed by percutaneous coronary intervention and stent placement. However, it progressed to multiple complications in sequence (ventricular tachycardia, stent thrombosis, hypoxic brain injury, and multi-organ failure). Hopefully, the condition of the patient improved after 2 months from GSC-4 to GCS-9 by a multidisciplinary approach and was discharged for home-based treatment.
