Initial presentation included hemodynamic instability, altered consciousness, and hyperthyroid symptoms. She was treated for thyroid storm and subsequently developed hypernatremia, suggestive of diabetes insipidus. MRI revealed features consistent with LH. This case highlights the complex interplay between immune dysregulation and pregnancy-related hormonal changes, leading to concurrent autoimmune thyroiditis and hypophysitis.

We report a 42-year-old male who experienced an AMI following recent cocaine use. Investigations revealed a left ventricular apical thrombus, identified as the source of a distal embolus occluding the right coronary artery (RCA). Cocaine is known for its thrombogenic effects, promoting thrombus formation through mechanisms such as vasoconstriction and increased platelet aggregation. This unique situation highlights the critical interplay between cocaine use, left ventricular thrombus formation, and the resultant coronary artery embolism, contributing to myocardial ischemia. The patient underwent successful aspiration thrombectomy, restoring coronary blood flow without the need for stenting. This case underscores the importance of recognizing CE as a potential etiology of AMI, particularly in the context of substance abuse, advocating for heightened awareness among clinicians regarding the complexities of managing thromboembolic events.</p>","PeriodicalId":10327,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Case Reports","volume":"13 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ccr3.70432","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
