This report suggests that IDH can spontaneously resolve without surgical intervention. An urgent echocardiogram should be used to assess the vitality of the myocardial tissue, especially with late presenting MI with deep Q-waves on the electrocardiogram strip. Conservative treatment in haemodynamically stable patients with IDH following MI and PCI is a feasible solution.
