Wedescribe a patient with acute myocardial infarction who showed ruptured plaque distant from the maximally stenotic lesion. In a 54-year-old male patient with acute antero-lateral myocardial infarction, coronary angiography showed a resolution of occlusive lesion with residual stenotic lesion in the middle portion of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) following t-PA administration. One month later, coronary angiography again disclosed significant stenosis of the middle LAD. Intravascular ultrasound revealed ruptured plaque that was located proximal to the maximally stenotic site which is generally considered as the culprit lesion. In this case, transient vessel occlusion occurred at the maximally stenotic site probably associated with plaque rupture distant from this lesion.<br>(Internal medicine 42: 53-55, 2003)
