Exercise-induced ST-segment elevation during the recovery phase of an exercise stress test.
To the authors' knowledge, the present report represents the first case in the medical literature in which an ST-segment elevation during the recovery phase of an exercise stress test indicated significant left main coronary artery stenosis. Although the patient did not complain of chest pain during the test, the ST-segment elevation persisted 20 min into recovery.
