Rare Giant T-Wave Inversions Associated With Myocardial Stunning: Report of 2 Cases
Prominent T-wave inversions are well recognized electrocardiographic signs that can occur in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, the giant negative T waves may be associated with myocardial stunning without AMI.This case report describes 2 patients without AMI who developed rare giant T-wave inversions measuring up to 35 mm in depth and QT prolongation after admission to hospital. While...
متن کاملGiant T-wave inversions and extreme QT prolongation.
An 84-year-old woman presented with hypoglycemiainduced altered mental status. Presentation vital signs were notable for a cuff blood pressure of 150/102 mm Hg but otherwise were unremarkable. Her neurological examination after dextrose was unremarkable and a CT of the brain showed no evidence of infarction or hemorrhage. Her initial ECG (Figure A) demonstrated normal sinus rhythm (rate, 84 bpm...
متن کاملPrecordial T wave Inversions on Electrocardiogram
T wave inversions on an electrocardiogram (EKG) can manifest from any process that result in a relative delay in regional ventricular repolarization. The differential diagnosis of right precordial T wave inversions, leads V1-V3, include myocardial ischemia, a normal athlete’s heart, arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, and pulmonary embolism amongst others. The case discussed below is of...
متن کاملOmnious T-wave inversions: Wellens’ syndrome revisited
Wellens' syndrome is characterized by T-wave changes in electrocardiogram (EKG) during pain-free period in a patient with intermittent angina chest pain. It carries significant diagnostic and prognostic value because this syndrome represents a pre-infarction stage of coronary artery disease involving proximal left anterior descending (LAD) artery, which can subsequently lead to extensive anteri...

BMJ Case Reports Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2012-008219 DESCRIPTION A 52year-old man was referred as a case of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) for he had chest pain, vomiting and deep T wave inversions on ECG. Physical examination was normal except for blood pressure of 190/100 mm Hg. ECG (figure 1) satisfied...
