Exercise-induced ST-segment elevation in patients without previous myocardial infarction is a relatively uncommon finding. When it does occur, it may be associated with significant coronary artery disease or coronary vasospasm. Here we describe a case of exercise-induced ST-segment elevation in both anterior and inferior leads in a patient with a critical stenosis on a wrapped left anterior descending artery, successfully treated with transluminal coronary artery angioplasty. © 2009 Italian Federation of Cardiology.

Abstract
Exercise-induced ST-segment elevation in patients without previous myocardial infarction is a relatively uncommon finding. When it does occur, it may be associated with significant coronary artery disease or coronary vasospasm. Here we describe a case of exercise-induced ST-segment elevation in both anterior and inferior leads in a patient with a critical stenosis on a wrapped left anterior descending artery, successfully treated with transluminal coronary artery angioplasty. © 2009 Italian Federation of Cardiology.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
