The standard surgical treatment for left ventricular aneurysms may not be the most effective. This review explores historical and newer approaches to aneurysm repair for improved patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Cardiac Surgery Techniques
  • Ventricular Aneurysm Treatment

Background:

  • Left ventricular aneurysms (LVAs) are often treated with aneurysm wall resection and linear closure.
  • This traditional method has been standard for over 40 years.
  • Emerging evidence questions the long-term efficacy of this approach regarding ventricular function, survival, and quality of life.
