A new surgical ventricular restoration technique to reset residual myocardium's fiber orientation: the "KISS" procedure
BACKGROUND The history of surgical reconstruction of the left ventricle after an anterior myocardial infarction shows an evolution of techniques which tend to a more and more physiologic restoration of ventricular shape and volume, with increasing attention to the orientation of myocardial fibers. METHODS We set a new surgical procedure for endoventricular patch reconstruction technique with ...

متن کاملImpact of surgical ventricular restoration on diastolic function: implications of shape and residual ventricular size.
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on left ventricle (LV) diastolic function in patients with ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy submitted to surgical ventricular restoration (SVR). The purpose of this study was to assess postoperative diastolic function changes and identify potential predictors of its worsening. METHODS One hundred and forty-six patients (65 +/- 9 years) with previous anteri...
متن کاملSurgical Ventricular Restoration to Reverse Left Ventricular Remodeling
Heart failure is one of the major health care issues in the Western world. An increasing number of patients are affected, leading to a high rate of hospitalization and high costs. Even with administration of the best available medical treatment, mortality remains high. The increase in left ventricular volume after a myocardial infarction is a component of the remodeling process. Surgical Ventri...
