A Case of Cardiac Metastasis from Lung Cancer Presented with Persistent ST Segment Elevation Simulating Acute Myocardial Infarction

ABSTRACT

Myocardial involvement by a lung neoplasm rarely appears, on an ECG, mimicking acute myocardial infarction. We experienced a case of metastatic lung cancer, to the cardiac apex, showing persistent ST segment elevation in the precordial leads, which simulated an acute anterior myocardial infarction.
