    AbstractA case of postoperative myocardial infarction is reported. It occurred seven days after intra-abdominal surgery (left hemicolectomy), in a patient with coronary heart disease. Diagnosis was delayed because of lack of pain; it was suggested by cardiogenic shock occurring 48 h after the initial phase. The patient had been receiving postoperative epidural analgesia with an opioid (pethidine); this may explain the pain was missing, so delaying the diagnosis.
