Abstract The anticancer drug of tyrosine kinase-inhibitors (TKIs) has significantly improved the prognosis of patients with specific leukemia but has also increased the risk of organ adverse reactions. Herein, we present a case of a patient diagnosed with myeloproliferative neoplasms who experienced recurrent chest pain after receiving treatment with Olverembatinib. Electrocardiography and coronary angiography confirmed the diagnosis of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries. This case serves as a reminder for clinicians to pay more attention and actively prevent the cardiac adverse reactions of TKIs when using such medications.
