[Myocardial rupture during exercise ECG].
We report a case of heart rupture in connection with a stress test performed nine days after an otherwise uncomplicated myocardial infarction. The Danish Association of Cardiologists recommend stress testing 5-20 days after myocardial infarction. We question whether this timing is appropriate considering the vulnerability of the myocardium at that time.
