Abstract

We report a 39-year-old woman in her 39th week of pregnancy who presented acute myocardial infarction with clinical and electrocardiography criteria and was treated with systemic fibrinolysis. After this, she was transported to the hemodynamic service of a referral hospital where heart catheterization was done that confirmed the coronary lession. 24 hours after, she had a newborn without sequellae.
