We present four cases of acute coronary syndrome developing after insect bites, chemotherapy, and coronary stent implantation. Two patients were lost due to anaphylactic shock-related multiorgan failures and sudden cardiac death. Since a wide range of drugs, foods, environmental conditions, and disease states may be associated with KS, all physicians must be aware of the syndrome.}, pages = {664--672}, title = {Cases of allergic coronary syndrome (Kounis syndrome) : what we should know}, volume = {84}, year = {2022} }
