Preexcitation Syndrome and Myocardial Infarction a Case Report and Literature Review
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
The electrocardiogram allows easy recognition of myocardial infarction and preexcitation syndromes but may cause confusion when both conditions are present simultaneously. The preexcitation syndrome may either simulate myocardial infarction or mask it. A case report where myocardial infarction is simultaneously masked and mimicked by a preexcitation syndrome is presented.
