Repair of post-infarct ventricular septal defect with or without coronary artery bypass grafting in the northwest of England: a 5-year multi-institutional experience

Abstract: These data provide evidence that concomitant CABG is significantly beneficial to mid-term mortality rates. We recommend that patients who present with post MI VSD who have multivessel disease should be routinely revascularised.

“…This difference was close to statistical significance: p = 0.059 with Fisher's exact test. Our total percentage of residual shunt is similar to the 24% of Barker et al [21], who used mixed techniques as we did. Other authors reported figures as high as 43% [7].…”

“…4 This introduces a significant selection bias into surgical series, artificially inflating survival rates. [5][6][7][8] The advent of the Amplatzer family of ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure devices offers a potentially attractive alternative to surgical repair with multiple device implants possible if required ( Figure 1A). A few series of selected cases exist, with good results reported, [9][10][11] but there are no large series with early as well as delayed intervention.…”

“…По дан-ным литературы госпитальная летальность при хирурги-ческом закрытии дефекта составляет 23-81% [2,15,16]. Высокая летальность после подобных операций обус-ловлена исходной тяжестью оперируемых больных, пожилым возрастом пациентов, тяжелой сопутствую-щей патологией, а также нередкими техническими про-блемами хирургической процедуры [17].…”
