In some patients, there is myocardial infarction in which ECGs do not show hyperacute T waves or ST elevation and left circumflex is the infarct-related coro-nary artery. As this diagnosis in the hyperacute phase is very difficult, we attempted to clarify the electrocar-diograhic (ECG) characteristics of those patients. Sub-jects were 16 patients in whom ECGs were recorded less than 6 hours from the onset. Inclusion criteria in this study were ECGs did not show hyperacute tented T waves or ST-elevation, and the infarct-related coro-nary artery was left circumflex. ECGs on admission, at 12-hours, at 24-hours, on day-7, and on day-14 wereanalyzed. ECG characteristics in the hyperacute phase were ① ST depression of 0.5-1.0mm in leads V3~V5, ② large U waves around 1mm in leads V2 or V3, and ③decreased T/U ratio in leads V2 or V3. ECG changes in time course showed ① increased R waves and decreased S waves in leads V1 or V2, and therefore R/S≧1, ② disappearing of depressed ST-segment at 12-hours, ③increased amplitude of the T waves and decreased amplitude of U waves in leads V1~V3, and therefore increased T/U ratio. These findings are compatible with isolated strictly posterior myocardial infarction.

We conclude that in suspected patients with hyper-acute myocardial infarction, large U waves or de-creased T/U ratio in the right precordial leads with or without ST depression suggest the presence of isolated strictly posterior myocardial infarction.
