Abstract Background ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) leading to cardiac arrest is an exceptionally rare occurrence in young adults. Those affected tend to abuse sympathomimetic drugs, have strong family histories, or have a significant burden of cardiac risk factors. Another uncommon cause of STEMI is coronary artery dissection, which overwhelmingly affects middle- and older-aged women with few cardiac risk factors. Case Report A 22-year-old athlete with no medical history was admitted to our institution post–cardiac arrest with an anterior STEMI and concomitant right coronary dissection. To our knowledge, this represents the first documented case of these simultaneous pathologies in a young cardiac arrest survivor. Why Should an Emergency Physician Be Aware of This? Myocardial infarction is rare in young adults, and a diverse range of etiologies must be considered promptly to prevent delays in time-sensitive therapies, such as antiplatelet agents and revascularization. The emergency physician is most often the first point of contact in patients with acute coronary syndromes, and the failure to recognize it in young adults threatens them with premature death and potentially life-long disability. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
