Abstract:
Intramyocardial dissecting hematoma (IDH) after acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a rare form of subacute cardiac rupture, resulting from hemorrhagic separation of helical fibers within the myocardium, which has been described in most studies as an incomplete cardiac rupture or a specific type of cardiac rupture. The management of myocardial dissection is variable and poorly documented, with clinical outcomes ranging from asymptomatic recovery to fatal cardiac events. We present here a case of myocardial dissection diagnosed by echocardiography.
