Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Although left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVPA) is a rare complication of mitral valve replacement, it is associated with an increased risk of rupture and consequent high mortality. It is important to establish the diagnosis of LVPA early so that definitive surgical therapy can be administered. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging provides an accurate preoperative evaluation that may be useful in the routine evaluation of suspected LVPA cases. |
