BACKGROUND: The current guidelines have discouraged the routine use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in cardiogenic shock complicating acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Since then, the trend of IABP utilization in ACS has been declining. Nevertheless, the guidelines still preserve the recommendation of IABP use in hemodynamic instability or cardiogenic shock caused by post myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal rupture (VSR). CASE PRESENTATION: A 46-years-old diabetic Southeast Asian female was referred from a peripheral facility with intractable heart failure despite treatment with vasoactive agents and diuretics for five days...

OBJECTIVES: Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) is one of the known complications after acute myocardial infarction. This study investigated the clinical results after surgical repair of VSD. METHODS: This retrospective study included all patients undergoing surgical repair of VSD from 1996 to 2020 in Oman. RESULTS: Out of a total of 75 patients, 62.5% were men, with a mean age of 59 years. The mean follow-up was 17.2 (7.5) years...

OBJECTIVE: We developed a hybrid technique for repairing post-myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal defect (VSD) that combines infarct exclusion with patch and a nitinol-mesh septal occluder device (SOD) to provide a scaffold to support the damaged septal wall. Here, we compare outcomes of patients with post-MI VSD repaired using patch only or hybrid patch/SOD. METHODS: Patients undergoing post-MI VSD repair at our institution from 2013 to 2022 who received patch alone or patch/SOD repair were analyzed...

OBJECTIVES: Post-acute myocardial infarction mechanical complications (post-AMI MCs) represent rare but life-threatening conditions, including free-wall rupture, ventricular septal rupture and papillary muscle rupture. During the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic, an overwhelming pressure on healthcare systems led to delayed and potentially suboptimal treatments for time-dependent conditions. As AMI-related hospitalizations decreased, limited information is available whether higher rates of post-AMI MCs and related deaths occurred in this setting...

We describe a technique to repair ischemic ventricular septal rupture via a left ventriculotomy. It employs a large endoventricular patch as a "lining" over the locally patched septal defect and the free wall defect which is going to be roofed with an external patch. Both defects are then closed in double layers, holding a single continuous patch. The technique enhances the advantage of the left ventriculotomy in the repair and minimizes ventriculotomy-related morbidity.

KONAR-MFO (multifunctional occluder) [Lifetech, Shenzhen, China] was first used in humans in 2013 and received the CE mark in May 2018. As name suggest, it can be use in various(multifunctional) situations in paediatric as well as adults. This is a versatile device with an improved delivery and flexibility which make this device a better option to be use with more comfort and minimum complications. This paper is regarding few rare and complicated lesions, like anomalous origin of coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) device closure, device closure of ventricular septal rupture (VSR) post myocardial infarction in sick elderly and finally device closure of paravalvar leak (PVL)after mitral valve replacement which were treated with this device with excellent results...

BACKGROUND: Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a serious complication occurring after myocardial infarction (MI). Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a common complication of VSR and an important factor affecting its prognosis. CS can occur in either an immediate or delayed manner after VSR; however, studies on the risk factors associated with immediate or delayed CS are scarce. METHODS: We retrospectively studied patients diagnosed with VSR after MI and admitted to the West China Hospital between September 2009 and August 2023...

Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm with a left-to-right shunt is extremely rare, requiring surgery if symptomatic; however, surgery has a high risk. Here, the case of a 77-year-old man with heart failure symptoms is reported, in which he develops a giant left ventricular pseudoaneurysm 16 months after ventricular septal perforation repair as a result of acute myocardial infarction, with mild shunt blood flow from the pseudoaneurysm to the right ventricle. Intraoperative findings showed a free wall rupture along the area where the patch was secured during the initial surgery...

Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a rare but often fatal complication. Surgery is considered the preferred treatment, although the optimal timing is discussed. The immediate preoperative hemodynamic status significantly impacts postoperative outcomes, making mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices crucial for perioperative hemodynamic stability. We present the case of a 61-year-old woman with no remarkable cardiological history admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of AMI and VSR...

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to analyze outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for ventricular septal rupture (VSR) after myocardial infarction (MI) and the preoperative use of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) as a bridge to surgery. METHODS: We included patients undergoing surgery for VSR from January 2009 until June 2021 from two centers in Germany. Patients were separated into two groups, those with and without ECLS, before surgery. Pre- and intraoperative data, outcome, and survival during follow-up were evaluated...

Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare and devastating complication of acute myocardial infarction. Early detection, assessment of the hemodynamic impact, and illustration of the pathophysiological context are crucial functions of echocardiography in decision-making for intensive management and reparative intervention. To evaluate this entity, echocardiography exhibits two strengths: its bedside nature and its multiple modalities. This document reviews the comprehensive use of echocardiography in the study of post-infarction VSR...

BACKGROUND: Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) following myocardial infarction (MI) is a rare but lethal complication. We analyzed the long-term results and risk factors for survival in the treatment of VSR. METHODS: From January 2012 to December 2021, 115 consecutive patients with post-MI VSR were admitted to our hospital. Depending on different treatment methods patients were divided into following three groups: medical, transcatheter intervention, and surgical repair...

BACKGROUND: Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (PIVSD) is a rare, life-threatening complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Few studies report the use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) for the treatment of cardiogenic shock in this setting. We describe our experience using a microaxial, transvalvular device (Impella, Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA) as a bridge-to-closure for PIVSD. CASE SUMMARY: We identified 13 patients from two centres with cardiogenic shock due to PIVSD who received an Impella device between January 2016 and February 2022...

BACKGROUND: Post-infarction ventricular septal defects remain one of the most feared complications after myocardial infarction with high mortality rates. In special cases, surgical or interventional treatment strategies are technically not feasible and do not always lead to a good outcome. CASE PRESENTATION: A 58-year-old male patient in cardiogenic shock with a very large ventricular septal (VSD) defect (4.9 cm × 5 cm) due to myocardial infarction was presented in our department...

AIMS: Many historical and recent reports showed that post-infarction ventricular septal rupture (VSR) represents a life-threatening condition and the strategy to optimally manage it remains undefined. Therefore, disparate treatment policies among different centres with variable results are often described. We analysed data from European centres to capture the current clinical practice in VSR management. METHODS AND RESULTS: Thirty-nine centres belonging to eight European countries participated in a survey, filling a digital form of 38 questions from April to October 2022, to collect information about all the aspects of VSR treatment...
