His ECG on admission revealed a heart rate of 63/min, absence of P waves, junctional rhythm and tall T waves [Fig. 1].
Showing features of left ventricular hypertrophy: Nornal sinus rhythm, rate 73/min. left axis deviation, reappearance of P waves, high amplitude QRS complexes, S in V1 30 mm, R in V6 23 mm suggesting left ventricular hypertrophy and decrease in T wave amplitude. This ECG was taken after hemodialysis (S.K 5.3 meq/l)

A repeat ECG performed in the patient after hemodialysis revealed normal sinus rhythm, heart rate of 73/min, left axis deviation, reappearance of P waves, high-amplitude QRS complexes suggestive of left ventricular hypertrophy and a decrease in the T wave amplitude [Fig. 2].
