EVOLUTION OF SURGICAL TECHNIQUES FOR CORRECTION OF LEFT VENTRICULAR ANEURYSM AFTER ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Abstract:
Evolution in the surgical treatment of left ventricular aneurysm post myocardial infarction
resulted in considerable decrease of intra and postoperative mortality in these patients, but the optimal
technique for correction remains questionable, each technique presenting advantages and
