We described here abnormal electrocardiogram findings in a 62 year old woman with a cerebrovascular accident.
The changes consisted of abnormalities in the large T wave (inverted and sharply pointed), and prolonged Q-T interval.
Necropsy showed subarachnoid hemorrhage over the right frontal, parietal, temporal and basilar region. On cut section, marked cerebral hemorrhage at putamen and hippocampus, extending to white matter of the frontal lobe, and also at the lateral ventricles, associated with many petechial hemorrhages at thalamus, hypothalamus, candate nucleus and pallidum. Examination of the heart revealed no evidence of past or present infarction. On microscopic examination, consisted of moderate brown atrophy and vacuolar degeneration.
There are good reasons for thinking that patients with brain lesions may have abnormal E.C.G. pattern.
