Early Spontaneous Remission of Intramyocardial Dissecting Hematoma.

Project description:Intramyocardial dissecting hematoma is a rare but potentially fatal complication of myocardial infarction. The decision to adopt a surgical or conservative strategy may depend on the clinical and hemodynamic stability of patients. Regardless, the precise and temporal assessment of the structure of hematoma is imperative. We herein report the first case of a patient with early spontaneous remission of intramyocardial dissecting hematoma successfully managed by a conservative approach with multimodality imaging.

A Rare Case of Intramyocardial Dissecting Hematoma following Acute Myocardial Infarction.

Project description:Intramyocardial dissecting hematoma (IDH) is a rare and very dangerous complication of myocardial infarction (MI) and percutaneous intervention. Hemorrhage inside the spiral fibers of the myocardium causes this type of dreaded complication. We have reported a case of IDH following acute anterior wall MI. The patient's electrocardiogram showed ST elevation in precordial leads. The serum troponin level was elevated. IDH should be considered a rare complication after acute MI. The patient may present with features of cardiogenic shock. A two-dimensional echocardiography may demonstrate this type of complication.

Coronary artery intramural hematoma, a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention.

Project description:Coronary artery intramural hematoma is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention which develops from intimal tear of coronary artery and propagates by blood accumulation along the medial surface of adjacent segment. Fifty-three-year-old male presented with nonexertional chest pain; he was referred after a positive stress test with+ moderate lateral wall ischemia. Coronary angiography showed 80% lesion in mid-left anterior descending artery (mLAD). Angiogram after angioplasty with 2.0 mm × 15 mm balloon and 3.0 mm × 15 mm drug-eluting-stent demonstrated a new stenotic lesion distal to stented mLAD segment. Subsequently, an overlapping 3.0 mm × 30 mm stent was placed with effective restoration of blood flow through LAD. During percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), balloon predilatation can result in plaque fracture and stent deployment may cause intimal tear forming intramural hematoma which can lead to post-PCI myocardial infarction necessitating prompt detection by intravascular imaging with intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography. Management is based on individual patient's characteristics and includes medical therapy, angiographic surveillance or repeat PCI.

Intramyocardial dissecting haematoma mimicking left ventricular clot, a rare complication of myocardial infarction: a case report.

Project description:Intramyocardial dissecting haematoma is a rare complication of myocardial infarction (MI) associated with high mortality rates. Studies and research of this occurrence are limited largely to isolated case reports or case series. We report a case of late presenting MI, where on initial echocardiogram had what was thought to be an intraventricular clot. However, upon further evaluation, the patient actually had an intramyocardial haematoma, with the supporting echocardiographic features to distinguish it from typical left ventricular (LV) clot. While this prevented the patient from receiving otherwise unnecessary anticoagulation, this diagnosis also put him at a much higher risk of mortality. Despite exhaustive medical and supportive management, death as consequence of pump failure occurred after 2 weeks. This report highlights the features seen on echocardiography which support the diagnosis of an intramyocardial haematoma rather than an LV clot, notably the various acoustic densities, a well visualized myocardial dissecting tear leading into a neocavity filled with blood, and an independent endocardial layer seen above the haematoma. Based on this report, we wish to highlight the importance of differentiating intramyocardial haematomas from intraventricular clots in patients with recent MI.

Left Ventricular Intramyocardial Dissecting Hematomas.

Project description:Intramyocardial dissection is a rare complication of myocardial infarction, trauma, and percutaneous intervention. It is usually caused by hemorrhagic dissection among the spiral myocardial fibers. We hereby report the case of a patient with left ventricular intramyocardial dissection who presented with acute decompensated heart failure. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Post myocardial infarction left ventricular intramural dissecting hematoma: a case report describing a very rare complication.

Project description:BackgroundDissecting intramural hematoma is a rare complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and has been associated with increased mortality. There has been paucity of literature to establish protocols and guidelines for management in such cases.Case presentationWe hereby report the case of a 45-year-old male patient with left ventricular intramural dissecting hematoma (LV-IDH) who presented with chest pain and breathlessness and diagnosed as non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) was performed showing LV-IDH, confirmed with cardiac magnetic resonant imaging (cMRI). Selective coronary arteriography (CAG) was performed showing significant obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Further management with conservative approach involved discussion with patient, cardiothoracic surgeon and cardiology team including heart failure specialist and interventional cardiology.ConclusionsThis case describes a rare complication of AMI and also focuses on utility of TTE and cMRI in the diagnosis of this rare complication. Both diagnosis and management are challenging and have to be individualized in similar cases. Multidisciplinary care coordination is important in management of patients with this diagnosis.
