[Electrocardiographic abnormalities consistent with acute myocardial infarction associated with ischemic stroke].
Patients with acute cerebrovascular diseases may present a great variety of electrocardiographic abnormalities. Electrocardiographic pattern consistent with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) without biochemical evidence of myocardial necrosis associated with ischemic stroke is exceptional. It is described a 86-year-old woman with an electrocardiographic pattern consistent with AMI, with normal creatinkinase and troponin I levels, associated with a right hemispheric ischemic stroke.
