- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 29-year-old previously healthy man without cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia who lost his consciousness after consuming synthetic cannabinoid Bonzai. His electrocardiography showed acute anterior myocardial infarction and he underwent coronary angiography. Thrombus formation and occlusion of the coronary artery was also observed along with brief information on cardiac effects of cannabinoids.
