Perforation of the esophagus electrocardiographically mimicking myocardial infarction

M Mosseri et al. Isr J Med Sci. 1986 Jun.

Abstract

A 76-year-old woman developed a perforation of the median esophagus. A concomitant electrocardiographic follow-up was compatible with an acute anterior wall myocardial infarction, but was not accompanied by typical chest pain or elevated serum myocardial enzymes. Perforation of the esophagus is added to the list of diseases electrocardiographically imitating acute myocardial infarction.
