Off-pump surgery for post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture

Liming Xia et al. J Card Surg. 2016 Sep.

Abstract

Post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture (PIVSR) is a complication of acute myocardial infarction with high mortality. We report a new surgical strategy to treat PIVSR. Instead of traditional open surgery, the septal defect was repaired with periventricular closure off pump.
