What is anteroapical aneurysm?
An anteroapical aneurysm is a type of heart aneurysm that occurs in the anterior and apical regions of the left ventricle, often resulting from damage to the heart muscle following a myocardial infarction (heart attack). This condition is characterized by a localized dilation of the ventricular wall, which can lead to complications such as heart failure, arrhythmias, and an increased risk of thrombus formation. Diagnosis typically involves imaging techniques like echocardiography or MRI, and treatment may include surgical intervention or medical management to prevent adverse outcomes.
The blood supply of the myocardial wall of the heart is supplied by the?

What factors can increase myocardial oxygen demand?
Heart rate and ventricular wall tension

referred pain
What is a ruptured heart wall called?
A ruptured heart wall is referred to as a myocardial rupture. This condition typically occurs after a heart attack when the heart muscle becomes weak and can no longer withstand the pressure from the heart's pumping action. Myocardial rupture is a serious medical emergency that can lead to cardiac tamponade and requires immediate intervention.
Is anterolateral myocardial damage dangerous?
Lets break up the words. Anterolateral: Antero-means the front Wall Lateral-means away from the midline. So in the heart this means the front left wall. (looking down at your own heart) Myocardial: Myo-means muscle and cardial- means heart Put it all together and you have damage to the muscle on the front-side wall of the heart.
What is a heart attack known as?
Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI).
What is interior infarction?
An inferior, not interior, infarction is a subclassification of a heart attack. An inferior myocardial infarction occurs when there is a blockage in the inferior wall of a coronary artery.
Abbreviation for myocardial infarction?
