Incidental Acute ST Elevation Due to Cannabis-Induced Myocarditis After a Mechanical Fall

We present the case of a young male with an orthopedic injury after a mechanical fall, who developed atypical chest pain associated with ST elevation and elevated biomarkers suggestive of myocardial injury. He was found to have myocarditis on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging that we postulate was...
