Interventricular septal dissection in a patient with an old myocardial infarction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We observed an unusual case of interventricular septal wall dissection in a patient with a prior myocardial infarction. Echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and left ventriculography revealed separation of the right-side and left-side walls of the interventricular septum with an accessory chamber between the two walls. Morphologic findings were consistent with interventricular septal dissection.

متن کاملIntraventricular free wall dissection causing acute interventricular communication with intact septum in myocardial infarction.
This report delineates a previously unrecognized complication of acute myocardial infarction, an intraventricular wall dissection producing interventricular communication without septal perforation. The clinical, hemodynamic, and pathologic features of this unique condition are documented, as well as the factors important in the mechanism of its production.

∗ Corresponding author. E-mail address: [email protected] (P. Rodrigues). The patient rapidly evolved with cardiogenic shock and a new systolic murmur. The echocardiogram revealed interventricular septal rupture with an extensive interventricular communication at the level of the posterobasal septum, associated with a serpiginous dissection of the septum, forming a neocavity, with an exit ...
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 کاملThe successful surgical repair of a ruptured interventricular septum following a myocardial infarct in an 89 year old man.
This case report describes the successful repair of an acquired ventricular septal defect following an anterior full thickness myocardial infarct in an 89 year old man. Four months after the infarct the patient was in severe congestive cardiac failure (NYHA Class IV), despite medical treatment, with signs of a ventricular septal defect. This was confirmed by echodoppler and cardiac catheterizat...
