RESUMEN

El infarto atrial es una entidad frecuentemente olvidada, ha sido descrita en asociación con el infarto ventricular o de manera aislada y es causado principalmente por aterosclerosis. Los criterios diagnósticos electrocardiográficos fueron propuestos hace más de 50 años y aún no han sido validados. El diagnóstico se basa en el hallazgo de elevación o depresión del segmento PTa y de alteraciones en la morfología de la onda P; sin embargo, las arritmias supraventriculares como la fibrilación atrial son las más comunes y con frecuencia predominan en el cuadro clínico. Un rápido reconocimiento y tratamiento pueden ayudar a prevenir complicaciones graves como la trombosis mural o la ruptura auricular. Se necesitan más estudios para establecer criterios diagnósticos unificados y para conocer la prevalencia real de esta entidad
