Resumen
Paciente de 62 años que presenta infarto agudo de miocardio con elevación del ST inferoposterior. Después de la realización del cateterismo presenta paro cardiorrespiratorio, documentándose tormenta eléctrica que requiere 17 desfibrilaciones y manejo antiarrítmico farmacológico con amiodarona y lidocaína. El paciente evoluciona adecuadamente y se le da egreso del hospital 6 días después de la consulta inicial.

Abstract
A 62 year-old patient with an inferio-posterior myocardial infarction with ST elevation, who had a subsequent cardio-respiratory arrest after percutaneous coronary intervention. He subsequently developed an electrical storm that required 17 defibrillations and anti-arrythmic pharmacotherapy with amiodarone and lidocaine. The outcome was satisfactory, and after 6 days of treatment, the patient was discharged to home.
