To report a case of Alocasia macrorrhizos poisoning presenting with chest pain, marked QTc prolongation, and reversible segmental wall motion abnormalities.
Key Findings:
Alocasia poisoning can cause significant QTc prolongation and T-wave inversions.
The patient exhibited a MINOCA-like phenotype with normal coronary angiography.
Toxic myocardial injury may be due to electrophysiological derangement rather than structural damage.
Interpretation:
The case presents a unique instance of Alocasia poisoning with significant cardiac effects.
Limitations:
Only one case is reported, limiting generalizability.
Long-term effects of Alocasia poisoning are not assessed.
Conclusion:
Alocasia macrorrhizos poisoning can lead to reversible cardiac effects.
