Papillary muscle complicating acute myocardial infarction is an uncommon but potentially catastrophic event. We present 3 such cases to illustrate the difficulties in early identification of rupture. In each case, transesophageal echocardiography was employed providing rapid and unequivocal identification of the disorder. Prompt surgical intervention led to survival in 2 patients.
乳头肌并发急性心肌梗死是一种罕见但可能具有灾难性的事件。我们报告3例此类病例，以说明早期识别破裂的困难。在每例病例中，均采用经食管超声心动图检查，从而快速明确地识别出该病症。及时的手术干预使2例患者存活下来。
