title: Three Different Coexisting Mechanical Complications of Myocardial Infarction Detected by Transthoracic and Transesophageal Echocardiography.
abstract: An aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, and interventricular septal rupture were detected by transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in a 61-year-old man with anterior myocardial infarction. This case illustrates the value of these techniques in the assessment of mechanical complications associated with myocardial infarction.
