ABSTRACT
Giant or Himalayan P waves are tall and peaked, the most prominent in lead II, and generally indicate enlargement of the right atrium. It has been rarely seen in clinical practice. The mechanism of Himalayan P wave formation is most likely related with prolonged conduction of electrical impulses through the enlarged right atrium. We describe the case of a patient with Himalayan P wave admitted for cardiac surgery.
