Abstract | Systemic embolization in infective endocarditis is common, occurring in 45-65% of cases. However, the septic coronary
embolization is a complication rarely described as a cause of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The presentation of
chest pain as the first manifestation of endocarditis is associated with a poor prognosis. Mitral valve endocarditis with
embolization to the left anterior descending coronary is the most common situation described in the literature.
We present a case of a young male patient with typical angina caused by acute myocardial infarction, who had an
obstructive lesion to the marginal branch of the circumflex artery in the angiography, and was later diagnosed with
aortic valve endocarditis. | pt_BR |
