[Acute myocardial infarction following a wasp sting in a patient with normal coronary vessels]
Abstract
A case of a myocardial infarction after a wasp sting in a 39-year old man is reported. Subsequent coronary angiography was normal. Spasm in the coronary arteries and thrombocyte aggregation secondary to anaphylaxis may be the underlying factors.
