Successful surgical repair of ventricular septal defect and left ventricle aneurysm in acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

Postinfarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a rare, but fatal complication developing within the first two weeks from the onset of myocardial infarction (MI). Patients with VSD most frequently die of acute decompensated heart failure within several days. Nevertheless, the timing of surgical repair still remains under consideration. A more «aggressive» approach implies closing the defect in the shortest possible time period after VSD is diagnosed; whereas some surgeons advocate stabilization of patients’ hemodynamics by means of circulatory support devices with the subsequent delayed surgical treatment. We present a clinical case of the patient with acute myocardial infarction who underwent successful surgical treatment for two life-threatening complications of acute MI: VSD and posterior aneurysm of the left ventricle
