Acute Coronary Syndrome Without ST Segment Elevation: Favorable Outcome After Angioplasty and Intracoronary Thrombolysis
Introduction: We describe a case of SCASSST with critical injury in the left anterior descending artery and intracoronary thrombosis
treated with angioplasty associated with thrombolysis, evolving with a favorable h y outcome.
Case report: A 70-year-old male patient, heavy smoker, presented with severe chest pain and underwent angioplasty and intracoronary thrombolysis with successful reperfusion.
Discussion: The case highlights the importance of early intervention in high-risk SCASSST and reinforces the relevance of strict control of risk factors.
Conclusion: Angioplasty associated with intracoronary thrombolysis was essential for the favorable outcome, highlighting the importance of an invasive and early approach.
