Embolic myocardial infarction secondary to marantic endocarditis in a patient with ulcerative colitis: case report

We present a case of acute coronary syndrome as an unusual manifestation of NBTE in a patient with ulcerative colitis. Although we have not identified any reported cases in the literature involving ulcerative colitis, it is crucial to consider NBTE in patients with underlying conditions that predispose them to a procoagulant state. Furthermore, it is necessary to define criteria or guidelines for its diagnosis or treatment.
