BACKGROUND Upper gastrointestinal bleeding(UGIB) after an acute myocardial infarction(AMI) is not an uncommon complication. Acute UGIB caused by Mallory-Weiss syndrome(MWS) is usually a dire situation with massive bleeding and hemodynamic instability. Acute UGIB caused by MWS after an AMI has not been previously reported.CASE SUMMARY A 57-year-old man with acute inferior wall ST elevation myocardial infarction underwent a primary coronary intervention of the acutely occluded right coronary artery. Six hours after the intervention, the patient had a severe UGIB,followed by vomiting. His hemoglobin level dropped from 15.3 g/d L to 9.7 g/d L. In addition to blood transfusion and a gastric acid inhibition treatment,early endoscopy was employed and MWS was diagnosed. Bleeding was stopped by endoscopic placement of titanium clips.CONCLUSION Bleeding complications after stent implantation can pose a dilemma. MWS is a rare but severe cause of acute UGIB after an AMI that requires an early endoscopic diagnosis and a hemoclip intervention to stop bleeding..
