Abstract :
Changes of the ST segment are commonly used as predictors of the culprit vessel during an acute myocardial infarction. In case of
combined ST elevation in both inferior and anterior leads, these changes can be due to a distal occlusion of a “wrapped”left anterior
descending artery (LAD) or a two-vessel disease. Our case of anterior wall myocardial infarction with inferior ST elevation and
anterior ST depression shows that electrocardiographic changes during acute myocardial infarction cannot always be explained
by logical sequelae of the injury current, vessel anatomy, and their irrigation territory
