Popis: | ST-segment elevation is well known for its diagnostic value for transmural myocardial infarction due to acute thrombotic occlusion of a coronary artery and often requires emergency reperfusion therapy. However, ST-segment is by no means pathognomonic for acute coronary events. Here, we report a case of ST-segment elevation after hepatectomy secondary to an unusual etiology. |
