Pericarditis

A 40 year old patient with no cardiac risk factor was admitted complaining of pleuritic chest pain with positive troponins.




The 12L showed ST elevations in inferior wall and precordial leads, PR elevation in aVR and PR depressions consistent with pericarditis.

Echocardiography revealed normal EF and no wall motion abnormalities. Patient was managed as pericarditis and later discharged.
