Long-term survival of a patient with left ventricular free wall rupture without surgical repair.

abstract：:This report reviews the available evidence for and against the combined use of clonidine and prazosin in treating hypertension. Clinical studies have resulted in modest or no enhancement of the antihypertensive effects when prazosin has been added to clonidine. This report discusses the possible mechanisms of an inter...

abstract：:Based on the foregoing data it is not unreasonable to hypothesize that restoration of flow in the infarct-related artery at a later date might decrease mortality. If that is the case, then a strong argument can be made for coronary angiography in patients surviving acute myocardial infarction. Of course, the ideal way...
