    Journal: Minerva Cardioangiol; 1991 Oct; 39(10):401-5. PubMed ID: 1803285.
    Abstract:
    A case of acute myocardial infarction of the inferior-posterior and lateral wall of the left ventricle, complicated at the onset with cardiogenic shock and myocardial rupture of the free wall, is presented. The precise and immediate echocardiographic diagnosis made it possible, by means of appropriate pharmacologic support, to reach a satisfactory haemodynamic balance in order to send the patient to decisive surgical operation.
