Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To determine the use of septal plication with Dor or Cooley procedure for post infarction anterior and anterior-septal aneurysm of the left ventricle.
METHODS:A total of 23 patients with post infarction anterior and anterior-septal aneurysm of the left ventricle underwent septal plication and Dor or Cooley procedure along with coronary artery bypass grafting concomitantly. Data of NYHA grading, left ventricular end diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were recorded before the surgery, before discharge and 3 months after the surgery.
RESULTS:Compared with the preoperative data, the NYHA grading before the discharge and 3 months after the surgery improved from 3.21 ± 0.62 to 1.72 ± 0.31 and 1.57 ± 0.23(P<0.05); LVEDVI decreased from (102.31 ± 18.71) mL/m² to (62.11 ± 6.21) mL/m² and (54.63 ± 4.54) mL/m² (P<0.05); LVESVI decreased from (69.32 ± 17.48) mL/m² to (30.23 ± 3.25)mL/m² and (28.34 ± 3.12) mL/m²; while LVEF increased from (32.92 ± 8.12)% to (48.78 ± 4.51)% and (50.52 ± 4.68)% (P<0.05), respectively.
CONCLUSION:Ventricular septal plication combined with Dor or Cooley procedure can remarkably improve the left heart function in patients with post infarction ventricular aneurysm.
