Distinguishing “benign” from “malignant early repolarization”: The value of the ST- segment morphology  Raphael Rosso, MD, Eran Glikson, Bernard Belhassen, MD, Amos Katz, MD, Amir Halkin, MD, Arie Steinvil, MD, Sami Viskin, MD  Heart Rhythm  Volume 9, Issue 2, Pages (February 2012) DOI: /j.hrthm Copyright © 2012 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Rapidly ascending (A) and horizontal (B) ST segment in the leads deploying J waves (J waves marked with arrowhead). Heart Rhythm 2012 9, DOI: ( /j.hrthm ) Copyright © 2012 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Electrocardiogram of a male patient with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation with J waves in the inferior leads. Leads II, III, and aVF are also enlarged to show the horizontal/descending ST segment. Heart Rhythm 2012 9, DOI: ( /j.hrthm ) Copyright © 2012 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

4 Figure 3 Distribution of patients with early repolarization according to the morphology of their ST segment. Patients with either J-point elevation or slurred R wave are shown in panel A, whereas patients only with J-point elevation are shown in panel B. VF = ventricular fibrillation.
