Chinese-hat patch glue repair of incomplete apical ventricular rupture.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Left ventricular free wall rupture is a dramatic complication of myocardial infarction. Sub-acute rupture may be compatible with life for several days or even longer. We present a simple and effective technique of construction of a conical apical patch, Chinese-hat, which was applied successfully to the infracted left ventricular (LV) apex with surgical glue, without using cardiopulmonary bypass. The application of this technique permitted the consequent off-pump double coronary artery bypass of a patient, who was at high risk of complications due to extracorporeal circulation.

Midterm clinical and echocardiographic results with patch glue repair of left ventricular free wall rupture.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is a dramatic complication after myocardial infarction. We present our mid-term clinical and echocardiographic results of LVFWR with an epicardial patch without cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS From February 1993 to May 2001, 17 patients underwent surgery for LVFWR. The mean age+/-SD of 12 males and 5 females was 68+/-10 years. All patients...
متن کاملIs it ever possible to treat left ventricular free wall rupture conservatively?
A best evidence topic was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether conservative or surgical management would result in better outcomes in patients presenting with left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) following acute myocardial infarction. Surgical techniques involved were infarctectomy + patch repair, suturing of an overlay patch to the defect, patch-...
متن کاملLeft 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 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 کاملPatch-and-glue sutureless repair for blowout rupture after myocardial infarction: report of two cases.
A blowout cardiac rupture is sudden and dramatic. The most appropriate surgical repair remains controversial. We report our experience with blowout rupture treated by sutureless technique. The two cases were males aged 58 and 79 years respectively. Echocardiography confirmed the diagnosis of cardiac rupture. Resuscitation was continued in the operating suite, and the myocardial tear and necroti...
