THE electrocardiographic findings resulting from infarction of the interventricular septum were recently described by Roesler and Dressler.‡ These investigators found that when the septum was involved ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a primary disease of cardiac muscle characterized by a thickening of the left ventricular wall and often predominantly affecting the interventricular septum. This ...

When ventricular septal rupture complicates acute myocardial infarction, the mortality is high. Reperfusion therapy has reduced the incidence of septal rupture. However, rapid diagnosis, aggressive ...

This ECG demonstrates an “extensive anterior” and “tombstoning” of the ST segment seen during a large acute anterior myocardial infarction. This is usually the result of thrombosis of the left ...
