Hemorrhagic myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention: Echographic versus autopsy findings
We present a case of hemorrhagic myocardial infarction after early percutaneous coronary
intervention which was suggested by cardiac echocardiography, and later confirmed by post-
-mortem examination. (Cardiol J 2011; 18, 4: 448–449

Value of the Electrocardiogram in Localizing the Occlusion Site in the Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery in Acute Anterior Myocardial Infarction
OBJECTIVES The study assessed the value of the electrocardiogram (ECG) as predictor of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) occlusion site in relation to the first septal perforator (S1) and/or the first diagonal branch (D1) in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND In anterior AMI, determination of the exact site of LAD occlusion is important because the more proximal the occlusion the less favorable the prognosis
