title: [Associated septal and intrapericardial rupture of the heart in the acute phase of myocardial infarction. Apropos of a case surgically treated with success].
abstract: The authors report the case of a double rupture of the heart (septal and parietal intrapericardial) on the 5th day of primary transmural anterior myocardial infarction in a 73 year old women. The diagnosis of septal rupture was made after cardiac arrest and the findings of a systolic murmur, and by echocardiography. Intrapericardial free wall rupture was diagnosed at surgery. The incidence, predisposing factors, gravity, prognostic factors and different medico-surgical therapeutic approaches to septoparietal complications of acute myocardial infarction are reviewed.
