Abstract:
This report describes a rare case of a global myocardial infarction caused by severe vasospasm of the coronary arteries secondary to the administration of pyridostigmine in a patient with polyarteritis nodosa (PAN). Details about the clinical presentation, the typical electrocardiographic pattern of multivessel disease, the differential diagnoses suspected in the multi-imaging approach, and the treatment of cardiogenic shock are described. The definitive diagnosis of infarction and the histopathological findings compatible with polyarteritis nodosa were made by autopsy.
