RESUMEN

Cardiac catheterization is an invasive procedure done for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes to assess coronary artery disease (CAD) and valvular diseases. Although complications rarely occur, they are possible. Of those complications, iatrogenic coronary artery dissection during a coronary catheterization is infrequent and can be severe. This case report discusses a 59-year-old female presenting to the emergency department for sudden onset chest pain, found to have a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and underwent a left heart catheterization (LHC). During the LHC, she sustained a coronary artery dissection.

RESUMEN

Horner's syndrome is a rare condition that results when there is an interruption of the sympathetic fibers that run from the stellate ganglion to the eye. The classic triad of Horner's syndrome includes unilateral ptosis, miosis, and anhidrosis. Spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare condition that occurs when there is a sudden collapsed lung without any direct cause. A few cases have been reported of spontaneous pneumothorax associated with iatrogenic Horner's syndrome. A chest thoracostomy is a procedure that can lead to iatrogenic Horner's syndrome. Here, we present the case of a 25-year-old male with a left-sided spontaneous pneumothorax complicated by iatrogenic Horner's syndrome secondary to chest thoracostomy.
