Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
With a small left ventricular aneurysm, the surgeon finds it difficult to decide whether to repair the aneurysm or leave it alone; there are risks and benefits to consider. Our choice is plication rather than resection. The procedure may be performed on-pump or off-pump, and the results are easy to demonstrate with the help of transesophageal echocardiogram. |
