Abstract
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a formidable challenge in cardiovascular medicine, demanding advanced reperfusion strategies such as emergency percutaneous coronary intervention. While successful revascularization is pivotal, the persistent "no-reflow" phenomenon remains a clinical hurdle, often intertwined with microvascular dysfunction. Within this intricate scenario, the emergence of intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) has garnered attention as a significant contributor. This review offers a detailed exploration of the multifaceted relationship between IMH and the "no-reflow" phenomenon, delving into the mechanisms governing IMH occurrence, state-of-the-art diagnostic modalities, predictive factors, clinical implications, and the evolving landscape of preventive and therapeutic strategies. The nuanced examination aims to deepen our comprehension of IMH, providing a foundation for the identification of innovative therapeutic avenues and enhanced clinical outcomes for STEMI patients.
