Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common comorbidity of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Since the distal esophagus and heart share a common afferent vagal supply, the delivery of radiofrequency in the distal esophagus can stimulate the coronary artery and induce acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a patient with CAD.
