We report a case of successful survival from ventricular free wall rupture without surgery, which was not overt rupture but micro-rupture. The patient was diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Myocardial blood leakage could be detected on transthoracic echocardiography with intravenous infusion of contrast dye 3 days aft...
Left ventricular free wall rupture is usually a catastrophic mechanical complication of myocardial infarction. Risk factors include advanced age, female gender and absence of prior infarction. The vast majority of patients succumb rapidly due to cardiac tamponade and electromechanical dissociation. Expedited and accurate diagnosis can improve the chances of survival. Echocardiography has been a...
AIM To analyze the results of surgical treatment of left ventricular free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarct in a case series. METHOD From 1984 to 2001, 25 patients (10 women and 15 men) were surgically treated in our Center for left ventricular free wall rupture after acute myocardial infarction. Their mean age was 62 years (range, 42-80). Cardiac symptoms (chest pain and/or dyspnea...
DESCRIPTION A 69-year-old man was seen among outpatients after an episode of chest pain. He was pain-free and haemodynamically stable. His electrocardiogram was normal, but a pan-systolic murmur was noted on examination. He was referred for outpatient exercise treadmill testing and transthoracic echocardiography. The echocardiogram demonstrated an akinetic basal posterior wall of the left ventr...
A 58 year old man underwent 6 surgical interventions for various complications of massive biventricular myocardial infarction over a period of 2 years following acute occlusion of a possibly "hyperdominant" left anterior descending coronary artery. These included concomitant repair of apicoanterior post-infarction VSD and right ventricular free wall rupture, repeat repair of recurrent VSD follo...
A 77-year-old man, with a recent history of an acute inferior myocardial infarction, was referred to our hospital with echocardiographic and clinical signs of left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR). The intraoperative finding demonstrated a huge double LVFWR. The inferoposterior wall was dramatically destroyed without any possibility to repair.
Left ventricular free wall rupture is a dramatic but not always fatal complication from myocardial acute infarction. However, if proper diagnosis is delayed, surgical treatment may be compromised. The authors report a case of large pseudoaneurysm in left ventricular inferior wall diagnosed on angiography study.
Occurrence of left ventricular free wall rupture following myocardial infarction is an unpredictable event associated with very high mortality rate. The most appropriate surgical approach remains controversial. With recent advances in portable echocardiography machines there has been a progressive rise in the number of cases of left ventricular free wall rupture diagnosed and reported. Early di...
A 78-year-old woman with diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the anteroseptal area fell into cardiogenic shock suddenly just before starting percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Echocardiography showed left ventricular free wall rupture, then an emergent operation was performed by sutureless patch repair using collagen fleece with fibrinogen-based impregnation. Eight days lat...
