A male in his 40's who had been discharged 6 hours prior after stenting of an inferoposterior STEMI had sudden severe SOB at home 2 hours prior to calling 911. So it would be wise to look at the pre-discharge ECG, which was available: There are Q-waves and ST elevation on this pre-discharge (post-stent) ECG. He had no chest pain.

Previous medical interventions included a spectrum of procedures, including catheter-directed thrombectomy for popliteal artery aneurysms with thrombosis, vascular bypass grafting for cerebral-anterior communicating artery aneurysms and arch replacement and stent implantation for aortic dissecting aneurysms.

An echocardiogram showed severely reduced global systolic function with an EF of 20-25% and an LV apical thrombus. All three lesions had TIMI 2 flow prior to stenting. This is an RAO cranial projection of the left coronary vessels after thrombectomy and stenting. The LV aneurysm morphology persists.

A prehospital “STEMI” activation was called on a 75 year old male ( Patient 1 ) with a history of hyperlipidemia and LAD and Cx OMI with stent placement. The EKG is diagnostic of acute inferior, posterior, and lateral OMI superimposed on “LV aneurysm” morphology. It was stented. He wrote most of it and I (Smith) edited.

Submitted and written by Alex Bracey with edits by Pendell Meyers and Steve Smith Case A 50ish year old man with a history of CAD w/ prior LAD MI s/p LAD stenting presented to the ED with chest pain similar to his prior MI, but worse. The patient underwent successful placement of one drug eluting stent with restoration of TIMI 3 flow.

hours after that first diagnostic ECG) : Mid-LAD culprit lesion, 99% stenosis, no pre-intervention TIMI flow available, but described as "severe subtotal lesion", which was stented with reported TIMI 3 flow resulting. Another lesion in the proximal LAD with 80% stenosis was stented as well. Culprit lesion was reduced to 0% and stented.

No prior echocardiogram was available for comparison. All these factors, again, support an ECG diagnosis of LVH The patient was nonetheless taken for emergency angiography, and a 99% mid-LAD lesion was found and stented. Is LVH like left ventricular aneurysm? In spite of those worries, she activated the cath lab. Am J Emerg Med.
