Ventricular septum rupture after myocardial infarction demonstrated by multislice computed tomography.
A71-year-old man was referred to the emergency department of our hospital for chest pain associated with intense interscapular pain. At presentation, a significant difference in systolic/diastolic blood pressure between the left and right arm was measured, and shortly thereafter, the patient developed severe hypotension. Accordingly, multislice computed tomography (MSCT) of the chest was perfor...

A62-year-old man presented to our emergency room with severe retrosternal pain. An ECG showed an acute lateral myocardial infarction, and the patient was referred for cardiac catheterization. One and a half hours after the onset of acute chest pain, coronary angiography revealed a thrombotic occlusion of the intermedial branch of the left coronary artery. Mechanical recanalization of the infarc...
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...
متن کاملVentricular 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 کاملVentricular free wall rupture after myocardial infarction
Patients with their first myocardial infarction (MI), who present to the emergency department many hours after the onset of chest pain, who appear to be improving but suddenly develop new chest pain and unexpected hypotension (with or without signs of cardiac tamponade), should be suspected of having ventricular free wall rupture (VFWR). The mainstay of treatment is surgery. These patients may ...
