“…Authors attributed this case to acute coronary syndrome, though no autopsy was performed ( Gadducci et al, 2008 ). They also cited two other instances of coronary vasospasm in response to carboplatin infusion, one in which transient ST segment elevation was noted during the event, but no abnormalities were noted on follow up angiography ( Chasen and Ebrahim, 2002 ), and another in which similar changes were noted on electrocardiogram (ECG) in a lung cancer patient experiencing chest pain during a carboplatin infusion ( Yano and Shimada, 1996 ). An ECG performed after our patient was resuscitated showed sinus tachycardia without ST segment changes, though this does not rule out a transient cardiac event, especially given her pre-existing cardiac comorbidities.…”
