Myocardial infarction in a nonagenarian is a morbid cardiac illness that can lead to significant mortality unless properly dealt with management aspects. Many comorbid or family-related issues might be part of holdbacks in management of such a group of patients. Hence, myocardial infarction in a nonagenarian where intervention is better treatment option forms an uncommon combination and has many preprocedural, periprocedural and postprocedural difficulties related to multiple issues. Here, we present a case of nonagenarian who presented with extensive anterior wall MI and was successfully dealt with primary percutaneous coronary intervention despite periprocedural and intraprocedural difficulties.
