AB  - This case history describes a man with inferior myocardial infarction (MI) with 
      right-ventricular involvement, treated with a right coronary artery stent. 
      Magnetic resonance showed akinesia of left-ventricular inferior and inferolateral 
      walls and right-ventricular inferior free wall with an impairment of global 
      systolic function. There was late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) of 
      left-ventricular inferior and inferolateral walls with microvascular obstruction 
      (MVO). LGE of the right-ventricular inferior wall was seen with a hypointense 
      core within hyperenhanced myocardium, consistent with MVO of the infarcted 
      right-ventricular myocardium. At follow-up there was persistent akinesia of 
      left-ventricular inferior and inferolateral walls and right-ventricular systolic 
      dysfunction. LGE was still evident with resolution of MVO.
