AB  - Culprit lesion identification in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is 
      often guided by electrocardiogram (ECG) changes. However, in the setting of 
      multi-vessel coronary artery occlusion, this can be challenging. We describe an 
      interesting case of dual territory STEMI with unanticipated ECG changes that 
      bring forth the concept of 'balanced ischaemia'. These seemingly bizarre findings 
      are well explained using the fundamentals of electrocardiography reinstating its 
      relevance in modern day cardiology.
