- Background: In traditional literature, it appears that "anteroseptal" MIs with Q waves in V1-V3 involve basal anteroseptal segments although studies have questioned this belief. Methods: We studied patients with first acute anterior Q-wave (>. 30. ms) MI. All underwent late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Results: Those with Q waves in V1-V2 (n = 7) evidenced LGE >. 50% in 0%, 43%, 43%, 57%, and 29% of the basal anteroseptal, mid anteroseptal, apical anterior, apical septal segments, and apex, respectively. Patients with Q waves in V1-V3 (n = 14), evidenced involvement was 14%, 43%, 43%, 50%, and 7% of the same respective segments. In those with extensive anterior Q waves (n = 7), involvement was 0%, 71%, 57%, 86%, and 86%. Conclusions: Q-wave MI in V1-V2/V3 primarily involves mid- and apical anterior and anteroseptal segments rather than basal segments. Data do not support existence of isolated basal anteroseptal or septal infarction. "Anteroapical infarction" is a more appropriate term than "anteroseptal infarction.".

- Background: Anteroseptal ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is traditionally defined on the electrocardiogram (ECG) by ST elevation (STE) in leads V1-V3, with or without involvement of lead V4. It is commonly taught that such infarcts affect the basal anteroseptal myocardial segment. While there are suggestions in the literature that Q waves limited to V1-V4 represent predominantly apical infarction, none have evaluated anteroseptal ST elevation territories. We compared the distribution of the myocardium at risk (MaR) in STEMI patients presenting with STE limited to V1-V4 and those with more extensive STE (V1-V6). Methods: We identified patients in the MITOCARE study presenting with a first acute STEMI and new STE in at least two contiguous anterior leads from V1 to V6. Patients underwent cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging three to five days after acute infarction. Results: Thirty-two patients met inclusion criteria. In patients with STE in V1-V4 (n = 20), myocardium at risk (MaR) > 50% was seen in 0%, 85%, 75%, 100%, and 90% in the basal anteroseptal, mid anteroseptal, apical anterior, apical septal segments, and apex, respectively. The group with STE in V1-V6 (n = 12), MaR > 50% was seen in 8%, 83%, 83%, 92%, and 83% of the same segments. Conclusions: Patients with acute STEMI and STE in leads V1-V4, exhibit MaR in predominantly apical territories and rarely in the basal anteroseptum. We found no evidence to support existence of isolated basal anteroseptal or septal STEMI. “Anteroapical” infarction is a more precise description than “anteroseptal” infarction for acute STEMI patients exhibiting STE in V1-V4.

- Background: ECG changes after revascularization predicts improved outcome for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Worst lead residual (WLR) ST deviation and resolution of worst lead ST elevation (rST elevation) are simple measures that can be obtained early after PCI. The objective of the current study was to investigate whether simple ECG measures, obtained one hour following PCI, could predict cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-derived myocardial salvage index (MSI), infarct size (IS), and microvascular obstruction (MVO) in patients with STEMI included in the MITOCARE trial. Methods: The MITOCARE trial included 165 patients with a first-time STEMI presenting within six hours of symptom onset. The current analysis included patients that had an ECG recorded at baseline and one hour after PCI and underwent CMR imaging after 3–5 days. Independent core laboratories determined WLR ST deviation, rST elevation, and the CMR variables (MSI, IS, and MVO). Results: 83 patients with a mean age of 61 years were included. 83.1% were males and 41% had anterior infarctions. In logistic regression models, WLR ST deviation was a statistically significant predictor of IS (OR 2.2, 95% CI 1.3–3.8) and MVO (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.5–5.2), but not of MSI (OR 0.8, 95% CI 0.5–1.2). rST elevation showed a trend toward a significant association with IS (OR 0.3, 95% CI 0.1–1.0), but not with the other CMR variables. Conclusion: WLR ST deviation one hour after PCI was a predictor of IS and MVO. WLR ST deviation, a measure easily obtained from ECGs following PCI, may provide important prognostic information in patients with STEMI.
