Myocardial Infarction and Ischaemic stroke are potential outcome after an electric shock though it is seen relatively rarely.Here, we report a man with myocardial infarction as well as Ischaemic stroke occurring together who suffered a domestic low- voltage (220-240V) electrical injury. Myocardial infarction was evident by cardiac enzymes, electrocardiography and echocardiography while Ischemic stroke was evident on CT scan head: Patient was treated on line of acute ischaemic stroke and myocardial infarction. Patient was discharged in satisfactory condition.Electric Injury due to low voltage AC may cause ischaemic stroke as well as myocardial Infarction altogether. Vasospasm caused by electrical injury, direct thermal injury may be the cause of concurrent phenomenon. |
