Asymptomatic contained left ventricular rupture
Background A 55 year old patient presented late to the emergency department following an ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Coronary angiogram demonstrated occluded left anterior descending artery with backfilling from collaterals. The patient was referred for an in-patient cardiac MRI scan (CMRI) to quantify left ventricular (LV) function and viability. A repeat CMRI was requested 3 m...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Contained Rupture: True or Pseudoaneurysm?
Left ventricular wall rupture after acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a fatal complication with the risk of sudden cardiac death. Such contained rupture presents as aneurysmal dilatation of ventricular wall on echocardiography. Pseudoaneurysm with contained rupture sealed by pericardium needs early surgical intervention. Here, the authors present similar case mimicking as pseudoaneurysm on ec...
متن کاملContained Left Ventricular Free Wall Rupture following Myocardial Infarction
Rupture of the free wall of the left ventricle occurs in approximately 4% of patients with infarcts and accounts for approximately 20% of the total mortality of patients with myocardial infractions. Relatively few cases are diagnosed before death. Several distinct clinical forms of ventricular free wall rupture have been identified. Sudden rupture with massive hemorrhage into the pericardium is...
متن کاملAsymptomatic left ventricular hemangioma
Cardiac hemangiomas are very rare benign neoplasms that are usually asymptomatic. Although there are often found incidentally during echocardiography, other imaging modalities such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and coronary angiography are needed to establish a diagnosis. Surgical excision is therefore recommended to confirm the diagnosis and avoid potential complications....
