Myocardial Rupture

Dissecting ventricular septal hematoma (DVSH) rarely occurs after repair of a ventricular septal defect (VSD) but can lead to serious complications such as septal rupture, myocardial rupture, cardiogenic shock, heart block, outflow obstruction, cardiac tamponade, abscess transformation, and death. This paper describes the diagnosis and management of acute, severe, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction caused by the development of a DVSH after VSD repair.

Myocardial Rupture

Interventricular septal hematoma following congenital cardiac surgery is an uncommon entity. Literature search reveals few cases of interventricular septal hematoma complicating pediatric cardiac surgery. We report a case of interventricular septal hematoma following patch closure of ventricular septal defect, with associated myocardial necrosis and myocardial rupture.

Surgical Decision Making

Cardiac injuries following blunt trauma are rare but potentially lethal in children. We present a 23-month-old child who sustained an aneurysm of the left ventricle free wall and ventricular septum with associated ventricular septal defect following blunt trauma. She underwent successful surgical repair 6 weeks following her date of injury. Surgical decision-making surrounding this case is discussed.

Postinfarction Ventricular Septal Defect

We describe the case of a 54-year-old woman with a postinfarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) and ventricular free wall rupture who was stabilized with a percutaneous ventricular assist device (pVAD) to allow for myocardial infarct stabilization. Following the rupture of the right ventricular free wall and cardiopulmonary arrest on hospital day 10, pVAD support was promptly converted to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for stabilization. After surgical repair was completed, pVAD support was continued for 4 days to allow recovery. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 11 and is alive and well 4 years later. Postinfarction VSD with free wall rupture may be salvaged with pVAD and ECMO support.
