  ABSTRACT: Revascularization to infarcted area after left ventricular free-wall rupture has been controversial. A 68-year-old man with acute myocardial infarction presented to our hospital and developed a left ventricular free-wall rupture. We repaired the left ventricular oozing rupture without culprit artery revascularization, however, followed by papillary muscle rupture and left ventricular blow-out rupture, which resulted in sudden death.
