Postinfarction Ventricular Septal Defect

The incidence of cardiac rupture complicating myocardial infarction has declined since the introduction of thrombolytic therapy. Despite the advances in the management of myocardial infarction, cardiac rupture remains an important cause of death among infarction-related fatalities. We discuss a patient who presented to our hospital with myocardial infarction and who subsequently developed a complex ventricular septal rupture, for which surgical repair was not feasible. Implantation of a CardioWest Total Artificial Heart (SynCardia Systems) allowed for immediate hemodynamic stabilization and served as a bridge to transplantation.

Abstract Post-myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a serious condition that is, fortunately, less diagnosed nowadays due to the advances in early diagnosis and treatment of ischaemic heart disease (incidence 1–2%). Despite the lower mortality of both surgical and interventional closure of the defect (25%) as compared to medical therapy (40–50%), there are still risks of residual leak in both approaches. Herein, we describe a case of a successful endoscopic-assisted repair of a delayed residual leak post-MI VSD after surgical repair. An attempt for interventional closure of the leaking point had failed; an endoscopic-assisted minimal access closure was successfully performed.
