Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during postpartum period is rare. In the current manuscript we present a case of a postpartum patient who developed ACS attributed to coronary vasospasm in the absence of vasocontrictive medication or smoking. This condition resolved with intracoronary injection of nitroglycerine and verapamil.
CASE: A 26-year-old woman, postpartum day five, presented with a sudden onset of chest pain and an acute ST-segment elevation on ECG. Coronary artery catheterization showed multiple areas of spasm, which was relieved by intracoronary injection of nitroglycerine and verapamil. Post-catheterization hospital stay was uneventful and the patient was discharged in a stable condition.
CONCLUSIONS: Early diagnosis and treatment of ACS in the peripartum period is crucial. Vasospastic coronary disease should be included in the differential diagnosis of peripartum chest pain. Nitrates are still considered the best treatment option with or without calcium channel blockers for both recurrence and prevention.
