%X This case report outlines the management of a 43-year-old male with no past medical history presenting with inferior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and a positive "Dead Man Sign." Prompt administration of antiplatelet therapy and emergent percutaneous coronary intervention led to successful revascularization of the occluded right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery. The patient remained asymptomatic throughout hospitalization and was discharged home with instructions for monthly follow-up for 1 year. Subsequent assessments demonstrated normal echocardiography and Electrocardiography (ECG) findings, indicating favorable cardiac recovery. This case emphasizes the critical importance of rapid recognition and intervention in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction cases, as well as the significance of the Dead Man Sign as a predictor of the occluded culprit coronary vessels, demonstrating favorable outcomes achievable with timely revascularization strategies.
