Acute Myocardial Infarction of the Left Main Coronary Artery Presenting with Cardiogenic Shock and Pulmonary Edema during Noncardiac Surgery

<div>(a) Emergent coronary angiography. Right anterior oblique caudal view showing a severe stenosis of mid LMCA (arrow). LMCA: left main coronary artery; LAD: left anterior descending artery; LCX: left circumflex artery. (b) Intravascular ultrasound study. The section at the white line showing low attenuation plaque around the entire circumference of the vessel with ulceration (arrows) in the mid LMCA. LMCA: left main coronary artery; LAD: left anterior descending artery; LCX: left circumflex artery. (c) Final coronary angiography. Right anterior oblique caudal view showing no significant LMCA stenosis with grade 3 TIMI flow after stent implantation (arrow). LMCA: left main coronary artery; LAD: left anterior descending artery; LCX: left circumflex artery.</div>
