Myocardial Infarction in a Young Female with Palindromic Rheumatism: A Consequence of Negative Remodeling

Palindromic rheumatism is a rare disease associated with systemic inflammation. Negative or constrictive coronary artery remodeling is typically not seen until the 7th or 8th decade of life. We report a case of a young female with palindromic rheumatism who suffered a non-ST segment elevation myocar...
