Successful infarct exclusion for postinfarction left ventricular free wall rupture.
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 septal perforation. In this case, infarcted myocardial tearing was prevented, and complete haemostasis was achieved by infarct exclusion.

A successful transatrial repair in redo surgery of postinfarction inferoposterior ventricular septal rupture.
A successful transatrial repair in redo surgery of postinfarction posterior ventricular septal rupture (VSR) was performed after an infarct exclusion technique through left ventriculotomy incision of the infarcted area. For the infarct lesion, this approach provides excellent results with sufficient closure of the VSR and prevention of the ventricular remodeling for five years. A right atrial a...
متن کاملInfarction exclusion technique with transmural sutures for postinfarction ventricular septal rupture.
We present a case of postinfarction ventricular septal rupture (VSR) who underwent successful repair using a modified infarction exclusion technique. In our procedure a heterologous pericardial patch is sutured to healthy endocardium in the free wall and septum all around the infarcted area. Interrupted circular mattress sutures were placed through the ventricular wall in such a way as to exclu...

Left ventricular free wall rupture often presents with an abrupt onset and rapidly progresses towards cardiogenic shock or electromechanical dissociation. The diagnostic pathway is still a matter of debate: echocardiography is commonly decisive but the assessment of coronary artery status is essential in order to optimize the surgical procedure. However, a preoperative coronary angiography coul...
متن کاملPost-infarct sub-acute left ventricular free wall rupture: case report and review of the literature
Post-infarction left ventricular free wall rupture is life threatening and not uncommon. Surgical experience is largely anecdotal with different techniques being used since the first successful surgical treatment was described. Here we present two patients with subacute left ventricular rupture that were managed using different perioperative strategies. Although the aim of surgical intervention...

Surgical ventricular restoration by the endoventricular patch technique (Dor procedure) is a surgical option designed to restore left ventricular shape and volume in patients with ischaemic heart disease and heart failure. Surgical ventricular restoration includes complete revascularisation, left ventricular reconstruction to restore near-normal shape and volume, and when necessary, mitral valv...
