Abstract
The electrocardiogram allows easy recognition of myocardial infarction and preexcitation syndromes but may cause confusion when both conditions are present simultaneously. The preexcitation syndrome may either simulate myocardial infarction or mask it. A case report where myocardial infarction is simultaneously masked and mimicked by a preexcitation syndrome is presented.
