Cardiac rupture in post-myocardial infarction syndrome.
A fatal case of post-myocardial infarction syndrome (PMIS) followed by a rupture of an inferior left ventricular aneurysm is described. Attention is drawn to the growing number of reports of aneurysm in PMIS, and the clinico-pathological significance of this association is discussed.
متن کاملCardiac rupture in acute myocardial infarction: post-mortem MR imaging.
We assessed acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with cardiac rupture in an autopsy using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in vitro and histological staining. Cardiac MR imaging in vitro generated high resolution images of myocardial thinning, rupture, and epicardial hemorrhage. High signal intensity (SI) on T(1) weighted images (WI) and low SI on T(2)WI of the rupture site corresponded with acute ...
متن کاملGlycogen synthase kinase-3α limits ischemic injury, cardiac rupture, post-myocardial infarction remodeling and death.
BACKGROUND The molecular pathways that regulate the extent of ischemic injury and post-myocardial infarction (MI) remodeling are not well understood. We recently demonstrated that glycogen synthase kinase-3α (GSK-3α) is critical to the heart's response to pressure overload. However, the role, if any, of GSK-3α in regulating ischemic injury and its consequences is not known. METHODS AND RESULT...
متن کاملPost-myocardial Infarction Left Ventricular Free-wall Rupture
Occurrence of left ventricular free wall rupture following myocardial infarction is an unpredictable event associated with very high mortality rate. The most appropriate surgical approach remains controversial. With recent advances in portable echocardiography machines there has been a progressive rise in the number of cases of left ventricular free wall rupture diagnosed and reported. Early di...
متن کاملPercutaneous occlusion of post-myocardial infarction ventricular septum rupture
AIMS The aim of this systematic review is to gain insight into the published experience on percutaneous closure of a post-infarction ventricular septal rupture (VSR). METHOD Relevant literature was obtained by MeSH-term searches in the online search-engine PubMed. Articles published in the last 10 years were included. Further filtering was done by using search limits and individual article se...
