Acute mitral regurgitation secondary to rupture of the papillary muscle, after acute myocardial infarction during the COVID-19 pandemic. Case report. Rev.Urug.Cardiol. [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.2, pp.244-255.  Epub 01-Ago-2020. ISSN 0797-0048.  https://doi.org/10.29277/cardio.35.2.16.

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.
