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...

Kounis Syndrome or allergic angina: an elusive entity
The advent and evolution of cardiothoracic anesthesia has allowed for an increased number of patients with often times complex cardiovascular disease to undergo non-cardiac and cardiac surgery with overall improved outcomes and safety.1,2 Preoperative non-invasive cardiovascular imaging has improved risk stratification and has led to better surgical preparedness and participation of trained cardiovascular anesthesiologists when deemed necessary.

Acute coronary artery dissection after multiple bee stings
We report a case of a 33-year-old man who presented with anterior wall acute myocardial infarction immediately after honeybee stings without the presence of cutaneous manifestations other than the bee sting lesions. Emergent coronary arteriography revealed dissection of the proximal left anterior descending artery, which was treated with balloon dilation with an excellent outcome.PMID:34970046 | PMC:PMC8682857 | DOI:10.1080/08998280.2021.1958579 (Source: Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings)
