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 کاملMyocardial infarction with ventricular septal rupture and cardiogenic shock.
A 72-year-old woman with a history of systemic arterial hypertension presented to the emergency department with chest pain, and an electrocardiogram showed acute anterior myocardial infarction with striking ST-segment elevation, upright T waves, and large Q waves in leads V1 to V4 (Figure). Furthermore, the ST-segment elevation > 0.25 mV in lead V1, the ST depression ≥ 0.1 mV in lead III, and t...
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 کاملDoppler echocardiographic features of ventricular septal rupture in myocardial infarction.
Doppler echocardiography was used to evaluate the features of interventricular septal rupture in six patients with acute myocardial infarction and to substantiate the hemodynamic data and morphologic findings at surgery or autopsy. Although echocardiographic visualization of the septal rupture was obtained in only two of the six patients, unusual Doppler flow signals were detected in the apical...
متن کاملEchocardiographic observations on ventricular septal rupture complicating acute myocardial infarction.
Echocardiograms were performed on three patients with ventricular septal rupture complicating myocardial infarction. The pulmonary artery mean pressure was 30 mm Hg or more in all three patients. The size of the ventricular septal defect, determined at operation or autopsy, was 2 cm or greater in each patient. The salient echocardiographic abnormality was dilatation of the right ventricle. The ...
