Chronic angina secondary to Takayasu arteritis. Report of one case.

Chronic coronary syndromes are usually considered uncommon in young women, related to slower progression of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, have atypical clinical presentations, and experience less diagnostic investigation. Non-atherosclerotic causes of coronary artery disease should be considered in young women experiencing angina. We report a 25-year-old woman who consulted for five months of moderate exertion angina.

[True posterior infarction diagnosis. Report of three cases].

Acute Coronary Syndrome with ST segment elevation requires rapid reperfusion, which is why the timely identification of these conditions, based on the patient's symptoms and the correct interpretation of the EKG, is essential for therapeutic decisions. We report three patients with True Posterior Infarction and their difficult EKG diagnosis. The classic 12-lead EKG method is often not capable of supporting the diagnosis, so we recommend the use of posterior leads and mirror images observing inverted V1-V2-V3 leads on the classic EKG.
