Abstract

A patient is described who developed a systolic murmur soon after she was administered intravenous thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction. She died and autopsy revealed extensive hemorrhagic myocardial infarction and a free‐wall rupture. A review of the literature suggests that this may be an unusual complication of thrombolytic therapy.
