“…Although, not one of the indication for pPCI, each patients with the typical ECG finding, should be considered for coronary angiography and reperfusion. [2][3][4] Case Report 72 years, male patient, F. V. was admitted to Coronary Care Unit because of recurrent chest pain from the previous day, duration of ten minutes. They were presented with the initial pain in the arms, shoulders with spread in the middle of the chest ("centripetal projection" ) unlike more frequent anginal pain presented by the "centrifugal pain projections" .…”

“…3 Accordingly, when new, or presumably new, T-wave inversions are discovered in a patient with symptoms, the likelihood that such symptoms could represent an ACS secondary to CAD should be regarded as high, even if the patient had any classical risk factors, other than being of the male sex, for unstable angina. 4 Unexplained dyspnoea, epigastric discomfort, and fatigue are well-known anginal equivalents.…”

“…[1][2][3] ECG changes in Wellens' syndrome may signify critical stenosis in the proximal LAD coronary artery. [1][2][3][4][5] Furthermore, ECG changes may occur during a pain-free period with no other evidence of ischemia or unstable angina and none to minimal elevation of cardiac enzyme levels. [3,5] Hence, recognition of the aforementioned pattern is important in preventing the development of a devastating anterior wall myocardial infarction.…”
