Abstract

There is alack of evidence on electrocardiographic criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients with biventricular paced rhythm. In all previous case reports of STEMI in biventricular paced rhythm, concordant ST-elevations and/or discordant ST-elevations >5 mm were present. This report describes the case of apatient with anterior STEMI and discordant ST-elevations of less than 5 mm during biventricular stimulation with epicardial left ventricular lead and highlights the importance of comparing the electrocardiogram to previous recordings when STEMI is suspected.
