Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To present the Instituto de Cirurgia Cardiovascular do Oeste do Paraná' (ICCOP) surgical experience, on the treatment of left ventricle aneurysms, by endoventriculoplasty, with septal exclusion (EVSE), and a 111 months follow-up. METHODS: Between April 1999 and April 2006, 28 patients were submitted to EVSE, by the author. Pre, trans and late post clinical and echocardiographic variables were analyzed retrospectively. Mean age was 59.0 +/- 9.5 years, being 23 male patients. Seventeen patients were in NYHA functional class IV and the mean EuroScore was 8.2 +/- 2.3. The mean pre-operative values for ejection fraction, end systolic and diastolic left ventricular volumes were 32.3 +/- 9.2%, 113.9 +/- 36.0 ml e 179.2 +/- 48.4 ml, respectively. The BraziliAnVErsion of the SF36 quality of life questionnaire was applied in the late follow up period. RESULTS: Four patients died in the immediate post-operative period, being the major cause of morbidity low cardiac output syndrome and arrhythmias. The mean follow-up period was 5.6 +/- 3.2 years. Left ventricle's ejection fraction and aortic cross clamping time were the significant factors for hospital and late mortality with P = 0.0222 and P = 0.0123, respectively. Actuarial survival curve showed a survival of 82.1 +/- 7.2%, and 54.7 +/- 22.9%, pre and post 107 months, of follow-up. CONCLUSION: EVSE' surgery is an effective option to treat this group of patients, with improvement of left ventricular function (from 32.3 to 46.4%) and patients' quality of life.
