IR did an immediate angiography with tPA infusion directly into the pulmonary arteries. Does anyone notice anything about their EKG?

\ Axial contrast enhanced chest CT (image 1) shows the left pulmonary artery (arrow) arising from the right pulmonary artery and passing posterior to the trachea (arrowhead). The trachea has a circular configuration and small caliber consistent with complete tracheal rings. Coronal image from 3D volumetric reformat (image 2) and coronal minimum intensity projection (image 3) shows the impression (arrow) on the inferior and right lateral aspect of the trachea as well as the small caliber (arrowhead) of the lower trachea. Pulmonary sling refers to an apparent left pulmonary artery arising from the right pulmonary artery. The anomalous vessel can compress the right mainstem bronchus causing hyperinflation. Pulmonary sling is often associated with complete tracheal rings.](https://app.figure1.com/case-detail/737e4c05-b313-4a73-9333-84d2c13d0978)
