Calcified Nodule: A Rare Clinical Diagnosis in Patients Presenting With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

ABSTRACT: Calcified nodules (CNs) represent the least common cause of acute coronary syndrome. Furthermore, case reports describing CNs as the underlying cause for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction are exceptional. We present a patient with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction caused by a CN and outline the corresponding diagnostic angiographic and intracoronary imaging findings.
