An 81 year old woman, diagnosed with rheumatic mitral valve disease and atrial fibrillation ten years previous, was admitted due to a right carotid transient ischemic attack and a acute coronary syndrome. No ST elevation was noted in the region supplied by the anterior descending artery coronary (troponin T increased and anterolateral negative waves T).
