Anterior STEMI in a 25-year-old with Cogan syndrome.

Cogan syndrome (CS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder primarily affecting young adults. It is characterized by interstitial keratitis, vestibuloauditory dysfunction, and, rarely, systemic vasculitis and aortitis. In this case report, we present a rare instance of a young male with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction in the context of aneurysmal coronary vessels and proximal occlusion of the left anterior descending artery. This case underscores the importance of recognizing cardiac risk factors in the setting of CS, as they can be life-threatening. Regular follow up is necessary, especially for patients showing signs of vasculitis or experiencing cardiac symptoms. A multidisciplinary approach to management can help optimize the prognosis for these complex patients. Comprehend Cogan syndrome (CS): Grasp the clinical manifestations and potential cardiovascular complications of CS. Diagnostic approach in CS: Differentiate cardiac symptoms in CS from typical coronary diseases, emphasizing the role of heart catheterization. Multidisciplinary management: Recognize the importance of integrating rheumatologists, cardiologists, and surgeons for optimal CS patient outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
