Resumo
Postmyocardial infarction syndrome includes such clinical signs as arthralgia, fever, increased ESR, pleurisy and a key sign - pericarditis with effusion. It was named from the American physician William Dressler, who has first described this syndrome. Currently, Dressler's syndrome remains important, relatively rare but all the same possible complication of acute myocardial infarction. The timely detection of Dressler's syndrome and its adequate treatment are discussed. It is emphasized that acetylsalicylic acid and other drugs for secondary prevention of cardiovascular complications (β-blockers, statins, clopidogrel) must be used for treatment of this syndrome.
