Abstract

The article "A Case of Infarct Myocardial Fissure" published in the Anatolian Journal of Cardiology describes the case of a 63-year-old man who presented with chest pain and hypotensive syncope. The patient was found to have a pericardial blood effusion with transmural perfusion defects of the posterolateral myocardial segments. Emergency cardiac surgery was performed to evacuate the pericardial hematoma and fix the fissure with a fibrin matrix patch. The successful outcome highlights the importance of multidisciplinary teamwork and timely imaging in managing complex cases of myocardial infarction. [Extracted from the article]
