摘要
Posterior myocardial infarction (PMI) refers to infarction of the posterior wall of the left ventricle, Although often associated with inferior and lateral myocardial infarctions, detection of acute PMI is difficult because the standard 12-lead electrocardiogram does not adequately image the posterior wall of the left ventricle, We review the findings on 12-lead electrocardiogram with PMI, as well as discuss the utility of additional electrocardiographic leads in the diagnosis of PMI.
