Abstract

The differential diagnosis of ST-segment elevation on electrocardiogram is multifaceted. Particularly, in cases of precordial ST-segment elevation, considering anterior myocardial infarction is crucial. Herein, we present a case of precordial ST-segment elevation with normal left coronary arteries.

Keywords: acute coronary syndrome; coronary angiography; electrocardiogram; myocardial infarction; right ventricle.
