%X Myocardial injury is a known complication following acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, yet there is little literature on this subject. Here, we present the case of a 56-year-old man admitted to the emergency room with severe CO poisoning. The electrocardiogram (ECG) at admission revealed an ST-segment elevation in leads II, III, and aVF, with an elevated troponin-T level. The patient was initially treated with hyperbaric oxygen, with improvement of symptoms and ECG normalization. He was later admitted for coronary angiography, which revealed an occlusion of the right coronary artery. This case aims to highlight an often-overlooked complication of CO intoxication and the need for more studies to better guide the treatment of these patients.
