We report the case of a 33-years-old woman, smoker and taking oral contraceptives, who presented to the emergency room with an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Thrombolytic treatment was initiated and a few minutes after, chest pain returned and an inferior ST-segment-elevation infarction was diagnosed at that moment. Catheterization revealed multiple embolic occlusion of coronary branches. We discuss tests performed and pathophysiology of myocardial infarction in this patient.
