Successful infarct exclusion for postinfarction left ventricular free wall rupture.
The mortality of postinfarction left ventricular free wall rupture is still high. Several surgical techniques have been used for repairing such ruptures. Here, we describe using an infarction exclusion technique to successfully treat a case of a blow-out type postinfarction left ventricular free wall rupture. This technique has frequently been used for repairing postinfarction ventricular septa...
متن کاملSurgical Treatment of Post-Infarction Left Ventricular Free Wall Rupture: Three Cases Review
Left ventricular free wall rupture (LFWR) is rare, but is one of the most serious complications of myocardial infarction and is associated with high mortality. Several operative techniques have been attempted, but early diagnosis and prompt surgical management are crucial for a positive patient outcome. We report three cases of LFWR successfully treated with surgical methods.
متن کاملNew modalities of surgical treatment for postinfarction left ventricular free wall rupture: A case report and literature review
Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is the third leading and most feared complication of myocardial infarction. The course of rupture varies from a catastrophic blow-out type to a subacute oozing type. The widespread availability and use of echocardiography have increased the number of cases diagnosed before death and the number of surgical cases attempted. Despite this, experience with ...
متن کاملA surgical case of ventricular septal perforation after repairing left ventricular free wall rupture.
A 78-year-old woman with diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the anteroseptal area fell into cardiogenic shock suddenly just before starting percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Echocardiography showed left ventricular free wall rupture, then an emergent operation was performed by sutureless patch repair using collagen fleece with fibrinogen-based impregnation. Eight days lat...
متن کاملPostinfarction posterior ventricular septal rupture mimicking a biventricular free wall rupture with extracardiac left-to-right shunt
Cardiac rupture (CR) is a life-threatening mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction (MI). CR subsumes 3 pathogenetic entities in descending order of frequency including (i) free wall rupture (FWR), (ii) ventricular septal rupture (VSR) and (iii) papillary muscle rupture (PMR). The incidence of CR decreased from 6.2% to 3.2% in parallel with a progressive use of revascularization p...
