RESUMEN
Kounis syndrome seems to be not a rare disease but a rarely diagnosed disorder. Multiple causes can join forces and trigger the development of this syndrome. We report the first case of Kounis syndrome manifesting as myocardial infarction with cardiovascular collapse that occurred in the dialysis room following an allergic reaction. The dialysis apparatus material of polyurethane, polyamide, polycarbonate, silicon rubber and polypropylene were incriminated causes. Physicians should be aware of the causality and existence of this disorder in order to achieve early and correct diagnosis and apply the appropriate therapeutic measures.

Capecitabine administration has been associated with various allergic reactions including acneiform skin rash, linchenoid photosensitive eruption, exudative non healing scalp, skin reactions, pyogenic granuloma, subacute cutaneous systemic lupus erythematosus, exudative hyponychia dermatitis, and hand-foot syndrome. A patient who developed ventricular fibrillation following capecitabine-induced coronary vasospasm and necessitating cardioverter-defibrillator implantation was published recently in.
