%X There are various echocardiographic parameters for diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. Among these paramaters, ¡°McConnell sign¡± is defined as right ventricular free wall hypokinesis in the presence of normal right ventricular apical contractility. We presented a patient with acute pulmonary embolism which caused reversible akinesia of the apex and right ventricular midfree wall, a finding we would like to term ¡°reverse McConnell sign.
