In this report we describe our first use of N-acetylcysteine in a patient with his first acute myocardial infarction in an effort to reduce the infarct size and to protect left ventricular function by pharmacological and mechanical therapy (thrombolysis and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty). This comprehensive therapy caused normalization of previously depressed left ventricular systolic function.
