Simultaneous Acute Myocardial Infarction, Aortic Dissection, Pulmonary Embolism, and Pneumothorax
Chest pain is a frequently misdiagnosed presenting symptom, with a broad differential diagnosis that includes critical, time-sensitive cardiopulmonary conditions that necessitate rapid and accurate identification. We present a rare case of concurrent ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism, and pneumothorax that was successfully managed by a multidisciplinary team.
