Abstract

Despite the low incidence of mechanical complications in myocardial infarction, the severity of them requires a fast and accurate diagnosis, as well as early treatment, with echocardiography being the leading imaging technique in these cases. Classically, the most frequently affected papillary muscle is the posteromedial one, due to its unique vascularization by the posterior descending artery. We present the case of a patient with rupture of the anterolateral muscle and secondary acute mitral insufficiency as a complication of a previous infarction due to occlusion of the anterior descending artery.
