Anterior myocardial infarction is associated with a decrease in blood supply to the anterior wall of the heart. Classification of anterior myocardial infarction is based on EKG findings as follows: Anteroseptal – ST-segment elevation in leads V1 to V4. Anteroapical (or mid-anterior) – ST-segment elevation in leads V3- ...
Abnormalities in leads V3 and V4 are suggestive of a problem in the anterior wall of the heart. Leads V1 and V2 provide information about the cardiac septum.
The septum is the wall of tissue that separates the right ventricle of your heart from the left ventricle. Septal infarct is also called septal infarction. Septal infarct is usually caused by an inadequate blood supply during a heart attack (myocardial infarction). In the majority of cases, this damage is permanent.

The anterior region of the lateral wall, surrounding the ostium of the right appendage, is often referred to as the right atrial free wall.
The septum is represented on the ECG by leads V1 and V2, whereas the lateral wall is represented by leads V5, V6, lead I and lead aVL. To make things more complicated, sometimes the LAD “wraps around” the cardiac apex, which is a common anatomic variant.
Inferior wall myocardial infarction (MI) occurs from a coronary artery occlusion with resultant decreased perfusion to that region of the myocardium. Unless there is timely treatment, this results in myocardial ischemia followed by infarction.
MI is categorized as a ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI), the most common type of MI. These MIs usually begin in the subendocardium, which is the area with the greatest oxygen demand and the least blood supply.
12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) demonstrating evidence of inferior myocardial infarction (MI). ST-elevation is seen in leads II, III and aVF. Reciprocal changes can be seen in leads I, aVL, V2 and V3. There is also some ST-elevation in leads V5 and V6.
