Tratamento cirúrgico da comunicaçäo interventricular e rotura da parede livre do ventrículo esquerdo após infarto agudo do miocárdio e da disjunçäo atrioventricular após troca da valva mitral, empregando o dispositivo de isolamento ventricular (DIV): estudo experimental
Surgical treatment of postinfarction ventricular septal rupture, free wall rupture and rupture of the posterior wall of the left ventricle after mitral valve replacement, using ventricular isolation device (VID): experimental study

A rotura de parede livre do ventrículo esquerdo (VE) e a comunicaçäo interventricular (CIV) por rotura de septo säo dois eventos catastróficos que podem complicar a evoluçäo do infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM). A oportunidade do tratamento cirúrgico, o acesso à CIV e a técnica cirúrgica ideal...
