[Acute anterior myocardial wall infarct caused by aortic dissection].
Acute myocardial infarction and aortal dissection are two different entities mostly occurring separately. According to the fact that both are severe diseases their simultaneous occurrence and interdependence present high risk for patients and a differential diagnostic dilemma for physicians. The case of S.J., a 52-year old female patient is a combination of aortic dissection and acute myocardial infarction caused by dissection of aorta and retrograde dissection of the left coronary artery main branch.
