چکیده
We describe a technique for repairing the ventricular septal perforation 10 days post acute anteroseptal myocardial infarction using the modi®ed infarction exclusion method. The repair involves endoventricular circular patch plasty and application of gelatin±resorcinol± formaldehyde biological glue in the space between a Te ̄on felt patch on the infarcted septum and a bovine pericardial patch in the left ventricular cavity. Its use in a patient resulted in an almost normal shaped interventricular septum and left ventricular cavity as well as normal left ventricular function. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

A case of acute pulmonary embolism due to multiple hydatid cysts is reported. Chest X-ray, echocardiography, spiral CT scan and MRangiography were performed for the diagnostic evaluation. The patient underwent a left anterior thoracotomy and a left pulmonary arteriotomy in order to remove the hydatid cysts, without using extracorporeal circulation. The post-operative recovery was uneventful and...
