Abstract: Postinfarction ventricular septal rupture PIVSR is a rare yet life-threatening complication following acute myocardial infarction AMI. Despite advancements in reperfusion therapies reducing its incidence, the mortality rate remains high. This case series highlights four patients who presented with PIVSR within 23 months at our institution. All patients were elderly, with three having diabetes, and none were smokers. Despite treatment, all patients experienced poor outcomes, with one succumbing during coronary angiography CAG. Risk factors for PIVSR include advanced age, low blood pressure, and gender, while operative mortality is also influenced by the timing of surgical repair.
