Ventricular septal rupture after acute myocardial infarction.
Ventricular septal rupture is a rare complication of acute myocardial infarction with important hemodynamic consequences. Spontaneous closure is extremely rare. Without a rapid diagnosis and correction by surgical intervention, the short-term mortality of these patients is higher than 90%. We report the case of a patient with acute myocardial infarction and a ventricular septal rupture that was...
متن کاملSeptal rupture with right ventricular wall dissection after myocardial infarction
BACKGROUND In patients with inferior myocardial infarction, septal rupture generally involves basal inferoposterior septum, and the communicating tract between left and right ventricle is often serpiginous with a variable degree of right ventricular wall extension. Right ventricular wall dissection following septal rupture related with previous myocardial infarction has been reported in a very ...
متن کاملImpact of cardiac magnet resonance imaging on management of ventricular septal rupture after acute myocardial infarction.
A 74-year-old man was admitted to the cardiac catheterization laboratory with acute myocardial infarction. After successful angioplasty and stent implantation into the right coronary artery, he developed cardiogenic shock the following day. Echocardiography showed ventricular septal rupture. Cardiac magnet resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on the critically ill patient and provided detailed...
متن کاملSyndecan-4 prevents cardiac rupture and dysfunction after myocardial infarction.
RATIONALE Syndecan-4 (Syn4), a cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan, has been detected in the infarct region after myocardial infarction (MI), but its functional significance has not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE We examined whether and how Syn4 regulates the cardiac healing process after MI. METHODS AND RESULTS Although the heart in Syn4-deficient (Syn4(-/-)) mice was morphologically and...
متن کاملRenin-angiotensin system and cardiac rupture after myocardial infarction.
Of all the mechanical complications after acute myocardial infarction (MI), cardiac rupture remains the most devastating, dramatic, and deadly. Continued improvements in the care of patients with acute MI have decreased the incidence of cardiac rupture over the past decade to under 3% in patients receiving reperfusion therapy,1 although autopsy evaluation of patients who died suddenly with acut...
