  • Abstract
    We report a patient who presented with a delayed spontaneous right ventricular rupture at the anterior atrioventricular groove after open heart operation. Successful surgical repair consisted of reestablishing anterior atrioventricular groove continuity by pericardial patch placement on the arrested heart. We discuss the risk factors that could initiate the primary tear and contribute to the extension of this type of right ventricular rupture.
