Key result
Right ventricular hypertrophy and/or dilatation can produce abnormal qR, QS, or qrS patterns and T wave inversions in precordial leads that may be mistaken for myocardial infarction.

What electrocardiographic patterns in patients with right ventricular hypertrophy and/or dilatation can be mistaken for myocardial infarction?
Right ventricular hypertrophy and dilatation can produce specific QRS-T patterns in precordial leads that mimic myocardial infarction, highlighting the need for careful ECG interpretation in these patients.
Gordon B. Myers (1950) conducted an observational in Right ventricular hypertrophy and/or dilatation. Right ventricular hypertrophy and/or dilatation was evaluated on Electrocardiographic features likely to be mistaken for myocardial infarction. Right ventricular hypertrophy and/or dilatation can produce abnormal qR, QS, or qrS patterns and T wave inversions in precordial leads that may be mistaken for myocardial infarction.
