Myocardial Ischemia with Penetrating Thoracic Trauma
Penetrating trauma is a rare cause of myocardial infarction. Our report describes a 47-year-old female who presented with a gunshot wound from a shotgun and had an ST-elevation myocardial infarction. The patient received emergent coronary angiography, which demonstrated no evidence of coronary atherosclerotic disease but did show occlusion of a marginal vessel secondary to a pellet. The patient...

Herein, we present a case of diaphragm injury due to penetrating thoracic trauma that was diagnosed 2 years later.

متن کاملLeft ventricular function during sudden strenuous exercise.
Strenuous exercise without warm-up has been shown to produce ischemia-like electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities in 60-70% of healthy subjects. These abnormalities appeared to be related to the development of an unfavorable myocardial supply/demand balance and, in chronically instrumented dogs, to transient decreases in coronary blood flow. A mechanism involving subendocardial ischemia has b...

obstructed, accounted for the timing; small caliber and high transmural pressures, for the character. I advocate the term “chirping rales” for this singular finding. (One must caution against the possibility ofconfusing the term “chirping rales” with “chirpes,” the latter designating a well-known and regrettably common disorder of amorous songbirds.)
