    Differential diagnostic dilemma between pulmonary embolism and acute coronary syndrome
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2016) Gül, Enes Elvin; Nikus, Kjell C.; Erdoğan, Halil İbrahim; Özdemir, Kurtuluş
    Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a frequent life-threatening condition in emergency departments. Careful diagnosis is important, and different diagnostic tests such as electrocardiogram (ECG), biochemical markers, echocardiogram, and computed tomography are required. Although ECG is a cheap and rapid diagnostic test for pulmonary embolism, it has some limitations in the differential diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome and acute PE. Herein, we report ECG results of a patient diagnosed with acute PE mimicking acute coronary syndrome.
