Abstract

The prevalence of mechanical complications of infarction has decreased in recent years, however, mortality remains high. Echocardiography plays a fundamental role for early diagnosis and management of these complications.  We present the case of a patient with ischemic rupture of the posteromedial papillary muscle and severe mitral regurgitation.
