AbstractAcute MI would rarely be a first differential diagnosis in a young boy of 19 years old withintellectual disabilitywith non-specific complaints. We present a case of a 19-year old boywithhistory of seizure disorder, who presented to the Emergency Department with complaint ofnon-specific chest discomfort since1 day.While being examined, he had one episode of seizure after which he suddenly developed cardiac arrest;he was immediately given high quality CPR along with DC shock (initial rhythm = VF) as per ACLS protocol. Post ROSC2D Echo revealed LV dysfunction with LVEF~ 40%. Post ROSC ECG revealed AWMI. Patient was loaded with antiplatelets, statins and anticoagulants. Patient underwent CAG which revealed single vessel disease. Subsequently, he underwent primary PTCA+ Stent (DES) to LAD with good end result. He was discharged in a stable condition after 6 days.
