Abstract

A 70-year-old female developed rupture of the posterior wall of the left ventricle 72 hours after mitral valve replacement and tricuspid annuloplasty. She presented with hypotension and hemothorax. Endoventricular pericardial patch repair was performed after removal of the prosthesis. Prompt recognition and hemodynamic stability allowed institution of cardiopulmonary bypass and successful repair.
