  • Abstract
    The etiology for an acute myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteriography should rule in and rule out the presence of an atrial septal defect. Acute increases in left to right shunting with an atrial septal defect may lead to episodes of myocardial necrosis and right ventricular dysfunction. This case report describes such a scenario.
