  • Title: [Rupture in myocardial infarct: predisposing factors?].
    Author: Leisch F, Pammer O, Beham A.
    Journal: Wien Med Wochenschr; 1983 Apr 30; 133(8):197-201. PubMed ID: 6868618.
    Abstract:
    The clinical, electrocardiographic and pathomorphologic findings of 37 patients with cardiac rupture and of 40 consecutive patients who died from other causes during acute myocardial infarction were analyzed in regard to predisposing factors for myocardial rupture. Useful diagnostic parameters, to assess the risk of myocardial rupture could not be identified. Pacemaker therapy for bradycardia did not increase the risk of myocardial rupture.
