Ventricular free wall rupture.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular free wall rupture (FWR) is reported to occur in 2-6% of cases presenting with acute myocardial infarction. Mortality of this complication is very high, accounting for 20-30% of all infarct related deaths. The objective of our study was to present our surgical experience of free wall rupture over a period of five years from 2004-2009. METHODOLOGY A review of our rec...

متن کاملAn unusual presentation of left ventricular free wall rupture.
Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is one of the most lethal complications following myocardial infarction. It accounts for approximately 12% to 21% of all in-hospital deaths following myocardial infarction. The majority of patients die shortly after LVFWR from instantaneous pericardial tamponade and hemodynamic collapse. However, up to one-third of cases are subacute in nature, allowin...
متن کاملLeft ventricular pseudoaneurysm after sutureless repair of subacute left ventricular free wall rupture: a case report.
A 65-year-old woman presenting with a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm 27 months after sutureless repair of a subacute left ventricular free wall rupture complicating acute myocardial infarction is described. An autologous pericardial patch and gelatin resorcin formaldehyde (GRF) glue were used in the repair. A small pseudoaneurysm bulged out over the true aneurysm of the left ventricle. We perf...
متن کامل[Left ventricular free wall rupture after percutaneous coronary reperfusion following acute myocardial infarction].
Due to the elevated rate of mortality with which it is associated, left ventricular (LV) free wall rupture is a dreaded complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The incidence is especially high during the first 24 hours, after which it decreases progressively; beyond the fifth day post-AMI, this complication is uncommon. The onset is usually acute, in the form of cardiac tamponade, al...
