Iatrogenic right coronary artery occlusion during minimally invasive cardiac surgery-tricuspid annuloplasty-a case report.

Although rare, right coronary artery (RCA) injury is a serious complication of tricuspid annuloplasty (TAP) and warrants close attention. We report a case of ST elevation myocardial infarction secondary to iatrogenic RCA occlusion during minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS). Electrocardiography (ECG) revealed ST segment elevation in lead II.

Ventricular septal rupture with right hypochondrial pain mimicking acute cholecystitis.

A 67-year-old man was admitted for anterior acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) management. He developed a severe acute right subcostal pain with normal cardiac tests. On day 5 of hospitalization, cholecystectomy was performed for suspected acute cholecystitis, but the pain intensified with hemodynamical instability.
