ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the most acute manifestation of coronary artery disease and is associated with great morbidity and mortality. A complete thrombotic occlusion developing from an atherosclerotic plaque in an epicardial coronary vessel is the cause of STEMI in the majority of cases.

Gastric volvulus mimicking ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
Mimics of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are common. We present the case of a STEMI mimic to highlight the importance of a broad differential diagnosis and multidisciplinary care. A 58-year-old woman presented to our hospital with drowsiness, epigastric discomfort and nausea.

Electrocardiographic Recognition of Unprotected Left Main ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
ST-segment elevation in aVR has traditionally been used for electrocardiographic identification of left main coronary artery (LM) myocardial infarction. We present two ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) cases with acute total occlusion of
