Acute mitral regurgitation secondary to rupture of the papillary muscle, after acute myocardial infarction during the COVID-19 pandemic. Case report Regurgitação mitral aguda secundária a ruptura do músculo papilar, após infarto agudo do miocárdio durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Relato de caso

Resumen: La insuficiencia mitral aguda por rotura de músculo papilar, como complicación del infarto agudo de miocardio (IAM), ha disminuido su incidencia con las estrategias de reperfusión miocárdica coronaria. La actual pandemia (COVID-19) ha generado alerta en la comunidad cardiológica por el riesgo de consultas tardías en pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo, con las consecuencias derivadas de una reperfusión tardía. Presentamos el caso de una paciente con IAM que en la evolución padece esta complicación. Summary: Acute mitral regurgitation from ruptured papillary muscle such, as complication of acute myocardial infarction, has decreased its incidence with myocardial coronary reperfusion strategies. The current pandemic (COVID-19) has generated an alert in the cardiology community due to the risk of late consultations in patients with acute coronary syndrome, with the consequences derived from a late reperfusion. We present the case of a patient with acute myocardial infarction who in evolution suffers this complication.
