| Core Tip |
This case describes the first known instance of simultaneous myocardial infarction, stroke, and bowel infarction, likely due to a thrombotic crisis. Synchronous cardiocerebral infarcts are rare (0.009%–0.29%) and typically affect older males. Etiology remains unclear but may involve cardiogenic shock reducing cerebral perfusion. Management requires a multidisciplinary approach. If within the thrombolysis window (4.5 hours), IV recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (0.9 mg/kg) should be given first, followed by coronary intervention. Outside this window, treatment prioritization depends on hemodynamic stability—cardiac intervention for shock, stroke management otherwise. Post-acute care involves high-dose statins if atherosclerosis is suspected and close monitoring in a high-acuity setting. |
