Rupture of the right ventricular free wall after myocardial infarction.
Patient 75, years-old, with free wall rupture of the right ventricle, corrected with prolene 3.0 points anchored in bovine pericardium patch, promoting the closure of the rupture. The patient was discharged on the 59th day after surgery in good clinical ans laboratorial conditions.
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 کاملSeptal rupture with right ventricular wall dissecting haematoma communicating with left ventricle after inferior myocardial infarction.
We report the case of an 86-year-old man referred for abdominal pain and ECG signs of inferior myocardial infarction. Transthoracic, transoesophageal and contrast echocardiographs showed a septal intra-mural haematoma, dissecting the right ventricle wall and partially obliterating the right ventricle lumen. A patent communication with left ventricle with extensive wall thrombosis was present at...
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 کاملThe incidence of atrial arrhythmias during inferior wall myocardial infarction with and without right ventricular involvement.
The atrial arrhythmia profile during inferior wall acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been systematically examined with respect to right ventricular (RV) involvement. To this end, 62 consecutive patients with first inferior wall AMI and no other conditions known to increase susceptibility for rhythm disturbances were studied by 24-hour Holter monitoring during the first and tenth day of ...
