Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Coronary sinus thrombosis (CST) is a rare condition, primarily occurring after instrumentation of the heart, with no prior reported cases diagnosed via point-of-care ultrasound or of spontaneous occurrence without predisposing medical or surgical history. Patients typically present with critical illness, and CST has a reported mortality of 80%. CASE REPORT: We present a case of a healthy 38-year-old male with chest pain one hour after cocaine use, with an electrocardiogram pattern consistent with Wellens syndrome, whose point-of-care cardiac ultrasound revealed CST. CONCLUSION: This uncommon ultrasonographic finding has never been reported in the emergency medicine literature to our knowledge. It can be recognized by the clinician sonographer during standard point-of-care transthoracic echocardiogram.
