Giant negative U waves in a patient with uncontrolled hypertension and severe hypokalemia.

Abstract:

:A 66-year-old woman with a long history of hypertension had an electrocardiogram with giant negative U waves in left precordial leads despite hypokalemia. This seems to be the first report of giant negative U waves induced by uncontrolled hypertension with hypokalemia. The occurrence of negative U waves in the presence of profound hypokalemia is an important observation because it masks the electrocardiographic manifestation of hypokalemia.
