Acute Myocardial Infarction by Right Coronary Artery Occlusion Presenting as Precordial ST Elevation on Electrocardiography

Korean Circ J. 2010 Oct;40(10):536-8. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2010.40.10.536. Epub 2010 Oct 31.

Abstract

It is rare to observe ST-segment elevation in only the anterior leads and not the inferior leads during right coronary artery occlusion. We describe a case with acute myocardial infarction (MI) by right coronary artery occlusion who developed ST-segment elevation only in the precordial leads V1 to V3.

Keywords: Electrocardiography myocardial infarction.
