ABSTRACT

The abnormalities in ventricular repolarization are common manifestations of several conditions, among these, we can include cardiac memory, a frequently unrecognized phenomenon in medical practice. The severity of each of these causes is variable; nonetheless, a definitive diagnosis of each of them is not always evident. We present the case of a patient admitted at the emergency room with chest pain and deeply inverted T waves in the electrocardiogram, mimicking a severe myocardial ischemia, which was defined as cardiac electrical memory.
