Surgical closure of muscular ventricular septal defects using double umbrella devices (intraoperative VSD device closure).
OBJECTIVES Surgical closure of some muscular ventricular septal defects has been proven to be difficult. In order to simplify the surgical technique we have used intraoperatively Rashkind double umbrella devices to occlude muscular ventricular septal defects. METHODS On the basis of haemodynamic and echocardiographic study five children aged 4, 6, 7, 14 and 41 months were considered suitable ...
متن کاملAn Unusual Mechanism of Closure of Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects
Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) are the most common congenital heart defects. Most of the small or moderate size (<6 mm) muscular VSDs close spontaneously within the first two years of life. The usual mechanism of spontaneous closure involves muscular tissue encroachment with superimposed fibrosis or primary fibrous tissue formation around the margins of the defect. We describe an unusual mec...
متن کاملAn unusual case of left ventricular aneurysm in duchenne muscular dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) leads to structural heart disease, including dilated cardiomyopathy, in 90% of patients >18 years of age. Despite the ubiquity of cardiomyopathy associated with DMD, ventricular aneurysms in these patients have rarely been reported. We present a case of a basal inferoposterior aneurysm of the left ventricle in a 23-year-old male patient with DMD.
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Aneurysm: Modified Linear Closure Technique
To understand the role of surgery in the treatment of patients with a ventricular aneurysm, one must first consider the criteria used to define the presence of an aneurysm. Angiographically, an aneurysm may be defined as an area of the ventricle which is demarcated from the surrounding chamber by hypokinesis, akinesis, or dyskinesis. An angiographic aneurysm^' may relate anatomically to an obvi...
متن کاملAn unusual complication of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm: hemoptysis.
Left ventricular aneurysm is a common sequela of anterior myocardial infarction. At the time of coronary artery bypass grafting, resection of this aneurysm is frequently undertaken to alleviate symptoms of heart failure and/or refractory ventricular tachycardia. Complications related to aneurysmectomy are uncommon. We describe an unusual patient who presented with hemoptysis related to the form...
