Abstract
Ventricular wall rupture is associated with poor outcomes subsequent to an acute myocardial infarction. We describe a case of postmyocardial infarction apical wall rupture following percutaneous coronary intervention. Our case emphasizes the importance of swift evaluation, diagnosis, and management to enhance survival in individuals confronting this critical condition.
