ABSTRACT
Rupture of the interventricular septum is a serious complication of acute myocardial infarction, accounting for 5% of death due to acute myocardial infarction. The mortality with medical therapy alone exceeds 90%. Accurate diagnosis, urgent management, and early operative correction are necessary for survival. We report cases of 3 patients with ventricular septal rupture after acute myocardial infarction.
