Use of a sandwich technique to repair a left ventricular rupture after mitral valve replacement.
One difficulty with external repair of left ventricular rupture after mitral valve replacement is collateral bleeding in friable myocardium adjacent to the rupture. The bleeding is caused by tension on the closing sutures, whether or not pledgets have been used. We report the case of a 69-year-old woman who underwent an uneventful mitral valve replacement. After cardiopulmonary bypass was termi...
متن کامل[Left ventricular rupture following mitral valve replacement].
Rupture of the posterior wall of the left ventricle is an unusual but often lethal complication following mitral valve replacement. The incidence is about 1% of MVRs. Most of the ruptures are attributed either to technical maneuvers in the operation or to stretch injury produced by removal of the mural leaflet of the mitral valve. Surgical repair of the rupture requires the cardiopulmonary bypa...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Rupture Following Mitral Valve Replacement*
During a 10-year period, we have encountered 6 patients (mean age, 61.2 years) with left ventricular rupture following mitral valve replacement, with an overall incidence of 1.8 percent. Four patients had early rupture, one had delayed rupture, and one had late rupture with a false aneurysm formation. Among four patients with early niptare, there were two patients with external repair by using ...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Rupture Post Mitral Valve Replacement
Prevention is better than cure best applies here. As per many authors, posterior leaflet chordae preservation prevent Left ventricular rupture (LVR) and preserve LV geometry. We are presenting here 5 types of left ventricular rupture (LVR) post Mitral valve replacement (MVR) with different methods to repair with the advantages and disadvantages of each. The mortality rate is still very high des...
متن کاملRepair of late left ventricular rupture after repeat mitral valve replacement.
Late rupture of the left ventricle after repeat MVR was successfully repaired by patch closure through the right atrium. We recommend early elective repair of such lesions before cardiac function is compromised.
