Precordial ST-Segment Elevation Caused by Proximal Occlusion of a Non-Dominant Right Coronary Artery.

2014 
For patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, primary percutaneous coronary intervention to the culprit lesion via electrocardiographic guidance is essential. We herein report the rare case of a 49-year-old man who presented with ST-segment elevation in the precordial leads, while coronary angiography results indicated total occlusion of the proximal non-dominant right coronary artery. We evaluated its possible pathophysiologic mechanisms and thoroughly discussed isolated right ventricular infarction and its electrocardiography findings.
