Abstract As the treatment of acute myocardial infarction has evolved from conservative management to thrombolysis and, in more recent times, primary angioplasty, the incidence of ventricular rupture, in particular post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD), appears to have fallen. In this article we discuss the clinical presentation and investigation of post-infarction VSD, the natural… View more

Fast and effective opening of epicardial arteries by thrombolysis or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to restore perfusion to the jeopardised myocardium is considered the cornerstone in the treatment of patients with an acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) leading to a reduction in morbidity and mortality.1 However, despite successful opening of the coronary artery, myocardial… View more

Cardiogenic shock (CS) remains the leading cause of death among patients hospitalised for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), with mortality rates of approximately 50%.1 Even with the benefit of thrombolytic therapy and intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABPs), the in-hospital mortality rate of patients with CS from AMI was only lowered from 63 to 47% according to a report from the SHould we emergently… View more
