Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic decreased the hospitalizations rate for acute coronary syndromes. The origin was multifactorial. In parallel, the incidence of mechanical complications after acute myocardial infarction increased. Is presented the case of a 54-years-olds female with COVID-19 and acute anterior myocardial infarction, apical aneurysm, and interventricular septal rupture. The surgical repair consisted of ventriculoplasty, septal rupture closure with a pericardial patch, and it was impossible to perform coronary revascularization.
