Kounis syndrome: ST elevations in the setting of anaphylaxis

Taylor Cesarz, Latha Ganti

Abstract

Acute coronary syndrome in the presence of an allergic reaction is known as Kounis syndrome, which is an underdiagnosed disorder and has nuances regarding management. We present a patient brought to the hospital as an ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) alert in the setting of an allergic reaction triggered by food.
