BACKGROUND Cardiac rupture, an uncommon yet catastrophic complication after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), has been studied primarily in the prethrombolytic and thrombolytic therapy eras but not in the direct percutaneous coronary intervention (d-PCI) reperfusion therapy era. The aim of this study was to delineate the incidence, potential risks, timing of occurrence, clinical features, and ...
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of myocardial infarction or cardiac trauma. We report a case of sudden death from rupture of such a lesion. Clinically, these lesions need to be distinguished from the other ventricular out-pouching lesions (true aneurysms and diverticula) because of their greater likelihood for rupture. Pathologically, apart from often being infarct-relate...
BACKGROUND Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is a dramatic complication after myocardial infarction. We present our mid-term clinical and echocardiographic results of LVFWR with an epicardial patch without cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS From February 1993 to May 2001, 17 patients underwent surgery for LVFWR. The mean age+/-SD of 12 males and 5 females was 68+/-10 years. All patients...
Cardiac tamponade is the phenomenon of hemodynamic compromise caused by a pericardial effusion. Following a myocardial infarction, the most common causes of pericardial fluid include early pericarditis, Dressler's syndrome, and hemopericardium secondary to a free wall rupture. On transthoracic echocardiography, pericardial fluid appears as an echo-free space in between the visceral and parietal...
Subacute rupture of the left ventricular free wall is a complication that occurs during the acute phase of a myocardial infarction. The subacute presentation makes surgical management possible. However, it is not known whether either pericardial manipulation or the use of pericardial patches influences left ventricular function over the medium term. Our aim was to monitor changes in left ventri...
BACKGROUND Cardiac rupture is a rare but potentially lethal complication of acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation (STEMI). Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is a preferable treatment method of acute STEMI. Reperfusion at vascular and myocardial levels may be the key parameters determining probability of cardiac rupture. AIM To analyse the relationship between reperfusi...
