Kounis Syndrome Associated With the Use of Diclofenac
CONCLUSION: Clinicians should be aware that Kounis syndrome may be an adverse effect of diclofenac. Prompt recognition and withdrawal of the drug, with treatment of both allergic and cardiac symptoms simultaneously, is important.PMID:36735919 | DOI:10.14503/THIJ-21-7802 (Source: Texas Heart Institute Journal)

Kounis Syndrome: A Sting to the Heart
Tex Heart Inst J. 2023 Jan 1;50(1):e217788. doi: 10.14503/THIJ-21-7788.ABSTRACTA 67-year-old woman experienced pruritus, an urticarial rash, and acute, pressure-like chest pain following an insect sting. Initial electrocardiographic findings were notable for ST-segment elevations in the inferior leads without reciprocal changes, but a follow-up electrocardiogram showed pronounced ST-segment elevations in the inferior leads with reciprocal changes. Her troponin I level peaked at 3,053 pg/mL, and she was transferred to a large academic center for percutaneous coronary intervention. Balloon angioplasty was performed for 95% t...

Kounis syndrome, the allergic heart attack
Seldom do allergic reactions progress to involve the heart. Kounis Syndrome is the occurrence of acute coronary syndrome associated with conditions of mast cell activation such as allergy hypersensitivities (1). Here, we describe a case in which an allergic reaction to injected Lidocaine and Kenalog leads to myocardial infarction. (Source: Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology)

Type ii and iii kounis syndrome after peanut anaphylaxis
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) associated with allergic or anaphylactic reactions, described in 1991 as “allergic angina”, is known as Kounis syndrome (KS). Triggers include food, drugs, and coronary stents. This case highlights ACS following peanut anaphylaxis. (Source: Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology)
