✦ Synopsis

We encountered an unusual case of acute myocardial infarction due to obstruction of a coronary aneurysm in a 38-year-old Japanese man. Although thrombolysis and rescue percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, performed in the acute phase, did not result in recanalization, serial angiography and intravascular ultrasonography showed spontaneous recanalization and partial thrombosis within the aneurysmal segment during 3 months.

Previous studies have shown a benefit of a strategy of direct angioplasty and stenting in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by early cardiogenic shock. However, few data exist for the subset of patients with left main trunk disease complicated by AMI and cardiogenic shock.
