Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after sutureless repair of subacute left ventricular free wall rupture: a case report.
A 65-year-old woman presenting with a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm 27 months after sutureless repair of a subacute left ventricular free wall rupture complicating acute myocardial infarction is described. An autologous pericardial patch and gelatin resorcin formaldehyde (GRF) glue were used in the repair. A small pseudoaneurysm bulged out over the true aneurysm of the left ventricle. We perf...
متن کاملLong term outcome of patients with postinfarction left ventricular pseudoaneurysm.
BACKGROUND It is debatable whether surgical repair is routinely indicated in asymptomatic patients with left ventricular pseudoaneurysms. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long term outcome of patients with pseudoaneurysm after myocardial infarction, focusing on those treated conservatively. METHODS 10 patients with postinfarction left ventricular pseudoaneurysm were followed up over a mean (SD) pe...
متن کاملEndoscopic repair for left ventricular pseudoaneurysm with right minithoracotomy.
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVPA) is a known serious complication of myocardial infarction or mitral valve replacement. As an alternative option, transmitral patch repair for LVPA has been reported. However, it is very difficult to complete the procedure for LVPA with a large defect. A 68-year old man with a history of inferior myocardial infarction had undergone mitral valve repair. At 4 ...

A 72-year-old elderly male smoker with a known history of hypertension presented with a six day history of chest pain. His blood pressure at presentation was 110/70 mmHg and there was no audible murmur. ECG showed Q waves in the inferior leads (Figure 1A) and troponin level was elevated (14 μg/L). Chest X-ray showed cardiomegaly with linear atelectasis in both lung bases. The working diagnosi...
متن کاملLeft ventricular pseudoaneurysm.
Left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysms form when cardiac rupture is contained by adherent pericardium or scar tissue. Although LV pseudoaneurysms are not common, the diagnosis is difficult and they are prone to rupture. We evaluated the clinical presentation, diagnostic accuracy of imaging modalities, results of therapy and prognosis of 290 patients with LV pseudoaneurysms. Most cases of LV pseu...
