Acute pancreatitis mimicking the electromechanical manifestations of st-segment elevation myocardial infarction

Razi Khan, Hector Li Chang, Sh

Abstract

Mild electrocardiographic abnormalities are often observed in the setting of acute pancreatitis. The authors report a case involving a patient diagnosed with acute pancreatitis who had electrocardiographic findings of ST-elevation myocardial infarction with concordant echocardiographic findings of wall motion abnormalities, but patent coronary arteries and no evidence of myocardial injury on pathology.
