RESUMO
Pese a que fue descrito hace casi 3 décadas, ha sido en los últimos años cuando se ha producido un incremento notable en la comunicación de casos de síndromes coronarios agudos desarrollados en el contexto de reacciones alérgicas, entidad que es conocida como síndrome de Kounis. En este artículo nos planteamos esta posibilidad diagnóstica ante un fracaso biventricular agudo en el transcurso de una reacción anafiláctica durante el intraoperatorio de una cirugía valvular cardiaca
Although Kounis syndrome was described almost 3 decades ago, there has been a notable increase in the reports of cases of acute coronary syndromes developed in the context of allergic reactions, also known as Kounis syndrome. This article discusses the diagnostic possibility in the face of an acute biventricular failure in the course of an anaphylactic reaction during the intra-operative period of a cardiac valve surgery
