Precordial ST elevation due to isolated ventricular branch occlusion after stent implantation in the right coronary artery.
Although ST-segment elevation in precordial ECG leads is characteristic of anterior left ventricular infarction, it may also be observed in patients with proximal right coronary occlusion.1 We describe a rare case of a patient presenting with ST-segment elevation in precordial leads V1-V3 due to occlusion of the ventricular branch of the right coronary artery during percutaneous coronary angiop...
متن کاملRight bundle branch block, right precordial st-segment elevation, and sudden death in young people.
BACKGROUND Patients with the ECG pattern of right bundle branch block and right precordial ST-segment elevation may experience sudden death in the setting of either arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) or a functional electrical disorder such as Brugada syndrome. METHODS AND RESULTS Among a series of 273 young (</=35 years) victims of cardiovascular sudden death who were pro...
متن کاملPATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND NATURAL HISTORY RIGHT VENTRICULAR ISCHEMIA Transient predominant right ventricular ischemia caused by coronary vasospasm
This study describes the clinical experience with four patients with variant angina caused by spasm of the right coronary artery who were assessed for evidence of right ventricular involvement. The patients were suspected of having predominant right ventricular ischemia on the basis of normal thallium-201 scans, left ventricular ejection fraction, regional wall motion assessed by equilibrium ra...

متن کاملST segment elevation in the right precordial leads following administration of class Ic antiarrhythmic drugs.
Electrocardiographic changes were evaluated retrospectively in five patients without previous episodes of syncope or ventricular fibrillation who developed abnormal ST segment elevation mimicking the Brugada syndrome in leads V1-V3 after the administration of class Ic antiarrhythmic drugs. Pilsicainide (four patients) or flecainide (one patient) were administered orally for the treatment of sym...
