Spontaneous Multivessel Coronary Artery Dissection Causing Massive Myocardial Infarction

A cardiac magnetic resonance study showed diffuse global hypokinesis (Online Video 2) with a further deteriorated LVEF of 10% and layered thrombus (C) in the left and right ventricular apexes. [...]extensive, diffuse delayed enhancement (C and D) encompassed almost the entire right and left ventricl...

Zusammenfassung:	A cardiac magnetic resonance study showed diffuse global hypokinesis (Online Video 2) with a further deteriorated LVEF of 10% and layered thrombus (C) in the left and right ventricular apexes. [...]extensive, diffuse delayed enhancement (C and D) encompassed almost the entire right and left ventricle, indicating massive transmural infarction with only scarce remnants of viable myocardium in the basal anterolateral wall and septum.
