Right Ventricular Infarction Mimicking Anterior Infarction [PDF]
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 ...

Acute Isolated Right Ventricular Infarction [PDF]
The electrocardiogram is universally used to diagnose ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and serves as guidance for the interventional cardiologist to identify the acute thrombotic lesion. However, this case illustrates that the electrocardiogram

Isolated right ventricular infarction: a diagnostic challenge. [PDF]
A 73-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency room due to sudden-onset dyspnoea, altered mental status and haemodynamic instability. ECG showed a junctional rhythm, T-wave inversion in I, aVL and V2-V6 (present in a previous ECG), and no ST/T changes

Assessment of right ventricular function after successful revascularization for acute anterior myocardial infarction without right ventricular infarction by echocardiography [PDF]
Background: Right ventricular (RV) involvement in acute left ventricular (LV) myocardial infarction (MI) is frequently underestimated in the clinical setting owing to the diagnostic limitations of the electrocardiogram and echocardiography. Objective: To

Right ventricular aneurysm following right ventricular infarction [PDF]
A 66 year old man was referred to our hospital with post-infarction angina. He had experienced an inferior myocardial infarction 21 and 15 years previously, and an anteroseptal myocardial infarction two years previously. He was scheduled for coronary angiography on day 3 after hospitalisation. Left ventriculography showed akinetic inferior and anterior
