Overview
- ECG is a simple method for finding evidence of pulmonary artery stenosis in metastatic lung cancer and should be routinely performed in such patients.
- Findings on ECG associated mediastinal metastatic of lung cancer led to pulmonary artery stenosis and right ventricular strain include right axis deviation, deepened S wave in lead 1, sustantial R wave in lead avR, inverted/flattened T waves in limb and precordial leads.
Electrocardiogram
- ECG is a simple method for finding evidence of pulmonary artery stenosis in metastatic lung cancer and should be routinely performed in such patients.[1]
- Findings on ECG associated mediastinal metastatic of lung cancer led to pulmonary artery stenosis and right ventricular strain include:
- Right axis deviation
- Deepened S wave in lead 1
- Sustantial R wave in lead avR
- Inverted/flattened T waves in limb and precordial leads
