Left ventricular wall rupture after mitral valve replacement: report of successful repair in 2 patients.

S Chi, R Beshore, L Gonzalez-Lavin.   

Abstract

Left ventricular wall rupture after mitral valve replacement, though uncommon, is a disastrous complication when it does occur. We have experienced this problem in 2 separate instances. Successful treatment was accomplished by suturing a large prosthetic patch over the entire area of laceration and hematoma.
