AI Article Synopsis
- Traditionally, sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (SMVT) is linked to heart tissue scars from long-term coronary artery disease.
- This case study discusses SMVT occurring in a previously healthy person during an acute myocardial infarction.
- The findings propose that sudden heart tissue damage (acute ischemia) can also trigger the development of SMVT.
Article Abstract
Traditionally sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (SMVT) is associated with areas of myocardial scar such as that of chronic coronary artery disease. We present a case of SMVT in the initial setting of an acute myocardial infarction in a previously healthy individual suggesting that acute ischemia can give rise to SMVT.
