Overview

Symptoms of myocardial rupture are recurrent or persistent chest pain, syncope, and distension of jugular veins. Due to the acute hemodynamic deterioration associated with myocardial rupture, the diagnosis is generally made based on physical examination, changes in the vital signs, and clinical suspicion. The diagnosis can be confirmed with echocardiography.
