Abstract

Myocardial infarction due to honeybee sting is rare, and only a few authors have discussed the relationship between the sting, anaphylactic shock and myocardial infarction. We describe a case of acute myocardial infarction in a 44-year-old man after anaphylactic shock following honeybee sting. He did not have heart disease nor any known risk factors attributable to atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. He had almost normal coronary angiography with non-significant hemodynamic changes.
