Hyperacute synchronous cardiocerebral infarction in a patient with new-onset atrial fibrillation: a case of myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries.

Hyperacute synchronous cardiocerebral infarction (CCI) is an extremely rare condition with an incidence of 0.009%. In the acute stage of ischemic stroke, there is a high prevalence of ECG abnormalities. Prolonged QTc, atrial fibrillation (AF) and ECG changes indicative of ischemic heart disease, such as Q waves, ST depression, and T wave inversion, were the most prevalent changes. There are three types of simultaneous CCI: cardiac conditions that cause cerebral infarction, cerebral infarction caused by cardiac conditions, and (c) dysregulation of the brain-heart axis or cerebral infarction causing myocardial infarction. Herein, we present a case of hyperacute synchronous CCI in an elderly patient with new-onset AF and myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).

Ischiofemoral impingement due to a lipoma of the ischiofemoral space.

Non-focal hip and groin pain can frequently be a diagnostic problem, particularly if it is related to uncommon causes such as ischiofemoral impingement. The vast majority of published cases of ischiofemoral impingement are caused by osseous changes of the ischiofemoral interval. We describe an unusual case of ischiofemoral impingement caused by an intermuscular lipoma. Surgical resection of the tumour and histology confirmed the lipomatous nature of the tumour, with subsequent resolution of symptoms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of a lipoma causing ischiofemoral impingement described in the English literature and emphasises that impingement can occur on the basis of a soft tissue mass occupying the interval of otherwise normal osseous interval and boundaries.
