Acute myocardial infarction after fluorescein angiography. 1979

R E Wesley, and W C Blount, and J F Arterberry

A 68-year-old man with a history of previous myocardial infarction and peripheral vascular disease had an acute myocardial infarction 30 minutes after the injection of intravenous fluorescein for fundus angiography. The situational stress or phenylephrine dilating drops could have contributed to the complication.
