Abstract

A 57-years-old man presented in our department of emergency with an acute chest pain infarct-like. The electrocardiogram realised showed an ST elevation in the infero-latero-basal leads suggesting an occlusion of the right coronary artery or the left circumflex coronary artery. However, the coronary angiography that was performed showed a subocclusion of the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery, in contrast to the expected results. This case was reported using electrocardiography and coronary angiography data and the electrocardiogram changes after a percutaneous coronary intervention. The particularity of this case lies in the lack of correlation between the electrocardiographic Changes and the Coronary Angiographic Findings.
