We present the case of a 70-year-old male patient with metastatic and castration-resistant prostate cancer as well as advanced bladder cancer, who suffered a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The cause of ischemia was critical left main stem stenosis, and right coronary artery stenosis. Initially, the patient was qualified for conservative treatment, but due to the intensifying symptoms of myocardial ischemia, it was decided that a hemodynamic intervention was necessary. Two drug-eluting stents were implanted, leading to clinical improvement. Following the treatment, the patient was considered as a candidate for further anti-cancer therapy. Unfortunately, due to the bladder cancer progression, anaemia and haemorrhage, his clinical condition exacerbated, and the patient died about 1 month from the cardiac intervention. Apart from the case description, the paper includes a review of literature on the treatment of acute coronary syndromes without ST-segment elevation in cancer patients.
