Type 2 Myocardial Infarction : JACC Review Topic of the Week

---

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) can occur from increased myocardial oxygen demand and/or reduced supply in
the absence of acute atherothrombotic plaque disruption; a condition called type 2 myocardial infarction (T2MI).
As with any MI subtype, there must be clinical evidence of myocardial ischemia to make the diagnosis. This condition
is increasingly diagnosed due to the increasing sensitivity of cardiac troponin assays and is associated with adverse
short-term and long-term prognoses.
