Abstract:
A 70-year-old man who had undergone felt repair for a left ventricular free wall rupture associated with acute myocardial infarction at age 66. A computed tomography at 4 years postoperatively showed left ventricular pseudoaneurysm and a 1-cm perforating hole. A patch closure with a Dacron patch was performed using cardiopulmonary bypass under ventricular fibrillation through a left thoracotomy. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was discharged on the 18th postoperative day.
