De Winter syndrome is a rare electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern that makes the diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) very challenging. Our case indicates that early identification and diagnosis of such ECGs and timely reperfusion therapy of De Winter syndrome as an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) equivalent are required to improve the prognosis of such patients.
