We herein report a 93-year-old woman diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) based on typical laboratory findings of severe chest pain accompanied by throat pain. This condition was initially interpreted as referred pain of cardiac origin. However, the patient had persistent throat pain after successful percutaneous coronary intervention. Upper esophageal perforation with life-threatening acute mediastinitis was unexpectedly identified by a further examination. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion in cases with persistent symptoms thought to be referred pain among AMI patients, as these symptoms may not be of cardiac origin but rather a sign of another concomitant critical disease.

We Should Pay Attention to "Referred Pain" - A Case of Acute Myocardial Infarction That Masked and Delayed the Diagnosis of Esophageal Perforation
