Failure of aneurysmectomy to improve left ventricular function.
Biplane left ventricular angiography was performed in 22 patients with isolated obstructive disease of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery and with an anterior aneurysm following transmural myocardial infarction. Six patients were restudied between 6 and 10 months after aneurysmectomy. Left ventricular reserve was estimated by analysis of a spontaneous postextrasystolic b...
متن کاملCURRENT TOPICS Indications for Left Ventricular Aneurysmectomy
MORE THAN 25 years ago, C.P. Bailey performed the first successful left ventricular aneurysmectomy in a human being.' Since then, with cardiopulmonary bypass and improved surgical techniques, aneurysmectomy has become an established procedure available to patients with ventricular aneurysms and severe symptoms. In this paper we review the available literature concerned with elective left ventri...
متن کاملDoes left ventricular aneurysmectomy improve ventricular function in patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery?
Fourteen consecutive patients undergoing left ventricular aneurysmectomy and coronary artery bypass grafting were studied by multiple gated ventricular scintigraphy at rest and during exercise before and at six weeks and six months after surgery. All had congestive heart failure and 12 angina pectoris. Before operation left ventricular ejection fraction fell significantly with exercise, as did ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular aneurysmectomy with continuous beating heart: early results
Objective: Operative mortality after left ventricle aneurysmectomy is close to 15%. Specifically for this procedure, forms of myocardial protection have been little discussed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate immediate results of left anterior ventricular aneurysmectomy using the beating heart approach. Method: We performed a retrospective analysis of 34 patients who underwent a left a...
متن کاملLeft ventricular function during and after right ventricular pacing.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this research was to evaluate right ventricular pacing effects on left ventricular function. BACKGROUND Right ventricular pacing alters the ventricular activation sequence and reduces left ventricular ejection fraction (EF). It is unclear whether the observed reduction in EF can be completely attributed to the alteration in activation sequence. METHODS Twelve subjects ...
