文摘

Ventricular wall rupture has become an infrequent complication of myocardial infarction due to widespread use of prompt reperfusion strategies. Patients suffering myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries seldom develop severe mechanical complications.

We present the case of a patient who developed a ventricular septal rupture following an anteroseptal myocardial infarction and who presented normal coronary arteries at the time of coronary angiography.
