Surgical treatment of left ventricular free wall rupture after myocardial infarction: case series.
AIM To analyze the results of surgical treatment of left ventricular free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarct in a case series. METHOD From 1984 to 2001, 25 patients (10 women and 15 men) were surgically treated in our Center for left ventricular free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarction. Their mean age was 62 years (range, 42-80). Cardiac symptoms (chest pain and/or dyspnea...
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 ...
متن کاملRepair of ventricle free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarction: a case report
INTRODUCTION Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may culminate in sudden death by ventricular fibrillation, cardiogenic shock, and cardiac rupture. We present a case of postinfarction rupture treated by direct closure and coronary artery bypass grafting after thrombolytic therapy. CASE REPORT A 67-year-old woman with cardiac risk factors of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and being post-menopa...
متن کاملMacroscopic Findings of a “Blow-out” Ventricular Free Wall Rupture
A 68-year-old man was admitted with continuous chest pain for >8 hours. The initial twelve-lead electrocardiogram (Picture 1) suggested an ongoing broad anterior myocardial infarction (MI). He suddenly began to suffer from severe hypotension with massive pericardial effusion (Picture 2A) before any emergent cardiac intervention could be performed and he died despite undergoing cardiopulmonary r...
متن کامل[Survivor of blow out type of free wall rupture: multislice computed tomographic detection of myocardial rupture in a case of small myocardial infarction].
A 73-year-old man was admitted to the emergency room because of shock and loss of consciousness. Electrocardiography and echocardiography revealed myocardial infarction of the inferoposterior wall and cardiac tamponade. However, laboratory data showed mild inflammation without elevation of any cardiac enzymes. Under percutaneous cardiopulmonary support, coronary angiography showed stenosis of o...
