Successful optical coherence tomography-guided treatment in a 19-year-old patient with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction caused by plaque erosion

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is a type of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and its pathophysiological mechanism is formation of lipid plaques. We report a 19-year-old patient with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction caused by plaque erosion, but he did not have any common...
