A 64-year-old man presented with stent thrombosis in the left anterior descending artery and multiple cardiorespiratory arrests immediately after the first dose of the BNT162b1 mRNA vaccine. He underwent emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. Anaphylaxis-induced stent thrombosis, or type III Kounis syndrome, is a highly possible diagnosis.

Recognizing Kounis Syndrome, the Unusual Possible Culprit of Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Rare Case Report
In this report, we aimed to discuss a case of Kounis syndrome mimicking acute coronary syndrome. We presented a 58-year-old man with dyspnea, chest pain, dizziness, and itchiness 30 minutes following sodium diclofenac ingestion. His physical examination was remarkable for shock with hypoxia and features of anaphylactic reaction. An urgent electrocardiogram was obtained, manifesting deep ST-segment depression in anterolateral leads with ST elevation of aVR, which hinted a severe three-vessel disease or left main disease. Allergic acute coronary syndrome was suspected. Thus, the patient was managed with fluid resuscitation...

Kounis syndrome: from an unexpected case in the Emergency Room to a review of the literature
Acta Biomed. 2022 Mar 14;93(1):e2022002. doi: 10.23750/abm.v93i1.11862.ABSTRACTKounis syndrome (KS) is a coronary syndrome in the setting of allergic/anaphylactic reactions and can be classified in three variants: vasospastic allergic angina (type I), allergic myocardial infarction (type II) and stent thrombosis (type III). The early diagnosis is of paramount importance for the correct management and the prognosis, being KS a life-threatening emergency condition. KS is not uncommon, but it is frequently unrecognized or undiagnosed in virtue of its broad clinical manifestations. The diagnosis should be based on the combinat...
