Ischemic electrocardiographic pattern secondary to gallbladder disease: Evaluation of possible mechanisms

Lawrence J. Petrovich et al. Cardiovasc Dis. 1981 Mar.

Abstract

A case of gallbladder disease that caused severe electrocardiographic changes resembling those seen with myocardial ischemia is presented. Normal coronary artery anatomy was documented by means of arteriography, and the patient's symptoms were relieved after cholecystectomy. Various theories concerning the cause of such electrocardiographic changes are discussed.
