Results of Relevant Cardiovascular Diagnostic Investigations

No. Study ECG Echocardiogram Coronary angiogram Cardiac enzymes Diagnosis (KS type), as reported by the authors
1 Mori et al26 (1997) Significant STEs in leads II, III, aVF, V5, and V6, with 2:1 AV block Normal Normal coronary trees; ergonovine provocation test showed severe spasm at middle portion of RCA and LCA accompanied by chest pain and ischemic ST changes promptly resolved by 2.5 mg intracoronary isosorbide dinitrate NR Vasospastic angina associated with anaphylactic reaction
2 Blanco et al17 (2003) Elevation of the ST segment of leads V1–V4 indicative of anterior acute MI Anterior hypokinesia with global EF of 49% Normal, with no atherosclerotic organic lesions Elevated total CK and troponin T Anterior acute MI associated with anaphylactic reaction
3 Gluvic et al22 (2007) Up to 5-mm STE in inferior and entire precordial leads No motility disorders of heart muscle (EF, 53%; trace mitral and tricuspid regurgitation) Not performed (refused by patient) Elevated CK, normal troponin I ACS associated with type I hypersensitivity reaction
4 de Groot et al20 (2009) STEs in leads II, III, and aVF; acute inferolateral MI diagnosed NR No significant coronary stenosis Elevated troponin T, whereas CK, and CK-MB remained normal STEMI associated with anaphylaxis
5 Cakar et al19 (2011) First time: 1-mm STE in inferior derivations, reciprocal ST-segment depression up to 4 mm in entire precordial leads and third-degree AV block
Second time: same as previously
NR First time: 2 sequential 70% RCA lesions and noncritical lesion in LAD Normal ACS associated with anaphylaxis (first time: II; second time: I and II)
6 Granitz et al34 (2011) Transient STEs over inferior posterior wall NR Stenosing CAD could be ruled out angiographically, but ubiquitous plaques found Elevated troponin, without CK deflection ACS associated with anaphylactic reaction (II)
7 Cagliyan et al18 (2013) Emergent ECG compatible with acute anterior MI; fourth-hour control ECG showed resolution of STE NR LAD occluded just distal to the first diagonal branch Marked elevation Anterior acute MI triggered by allergic reaction (II)
8 Rodrigues et al2 (2013) STE in the inferior leads No motility disorders of heart wall muscle or other abnormalities No lesions on coronary vessels or contractility abnormalities Elevated troponin I and CK-MB ACS associated with anaphylaxis (I)
9 Tiwari et al32 (2013) STE in leads II, III, and aVF; STEMI of inferior wall diagnosed NR Normal coronary vessels Elevated troponin T, normal CK, and CK-MB STEMI associated with anaphylaxis (I)
