[Acute coronary thrombosis in a 28 year-old woman]
Abstract:
A 28-year-old woman, with no previous cardiovascular history, was hospitalized for myocardial infarction complicated by bifascicular block followed by complete atrio-ventricular block with a regressive course. A coronary arteriography performed on the 10th day demonstrated a thrombosis of the anterior interventricular artery, the rest of the coronary network being normal. The influence of a dyslipidaemia and the taking of oral contraceptives was discussed as an aetiology.
