Clin Case Rep. 2024 Aug 27;12(9):e9367. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.9367. eCollection 2024 Sep.

Abstract

Several electrocardiographic alterations due to hypokalemia have been described, but the electrocardiographic presentation meeting criteria for occlusion of the left main coronary artery is very rare. We describe a case of hypokalemia simulating it.

Keywords: case reports; coronary artery disease; electrocardiography; hypokalemia; syncope.
