Occam ’s Razor Versus Hickam’s Dictum in a Presentation of STEMI
A 79-year-old female presented with an inferolateral STEMI on a background of a recent multi-territorial stroke, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, and prior thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer. Percutaneous intervention involved a drug-eluting balloon to the culprit oblique marginal artery and medically managed calcified 80% ostial right coronary artery (RCA). New paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) was noted. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a 13x7 mm mobile aortic valve mass with mild regurgitation.
