Right Ventricular Infarction Mimicking Anterior Infarction [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2006
It is rare to observe ST elevation in anterior derivations caused by right ventricular branch occlusion. We described the case of a patient with unstable angina who developed acute right ventricular myocardial infarction with ST‐segment elevation in anterior precordial leads (V1–V4) shortly after coronary angiography.
