Dynamic LVOT obstruction in anterior MI signals high fatality risk; case reports leave optimal management unresolved.
Hrovatin et al. (2002) conducted a case report in Acute anterior myocardial infarction with dynamic LVOT obstruction (n=4). Dynamic LVOT obstruction was evaluated on Fatal cardiogenic shock and cardiac rupture. Dynamic LVOT obstruction during acute anterior myocardial infarction is a potentially fatal complication, with 2 of 4 cases progressing to fatal cardiogenic shock and cardiac rupture.
