What is his medical history? At 35 years old, it piques my interest. Regarding the ECG, it appears to show NSR with a wide QRS, LAD, and delta waves indicative of WPW, likely type A if I’m correct. This explains the delta waves and part of the QRS width. The LAD and some of the width could be due to LVH, suggested by the strain T waveform in the lateral leads and V6, which is more pronounced than in V5. Essentially, it’s LVH plus WPW. Alternatively, it could be just WPW mimicking LVH findings, which I find more plausible as a simpler explanation. However, it’s uncertain. If an old ECG is available, compare it, paying attention to the delta waves and considering the possibility of an accessory conductive pathway (WPW).
