  • Title: Left ventricular rupture in an anterior wall acute myocardial infarction with severe intra-ventricular gradient.
    Author: Brunetti ND, Ieva R, Correale M, Di Martino LF, De Gennaro L, Di Biase M.
    Journal: J Thromb Thrombolysis; 2012 Feb; 33(2):206-8. PubMed ID: 22143246.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 72-year-old man with ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction and severe intra-ventricular gradient (>40 mmHg), who died with left ventricular rupture (LVR). We postulate that severe intra-ventricular gradient detectable at admission may be related to subsequent LVR and proposed as a risk factor for LVR.
