摘要
A 73-year-old woman with acute myocardial infarction (Seg. 6: 100%) was admitted to our hospital. She underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) and stent insertion to Seg. 6 on that day and anticoagulant therapy with urokinase and heparin was started in CCU. On the 4th day, chest pain developed suddenly and echocardiography revealed cardiac tamponade, so we suspected left ventricular free wall rupture. When blood pressure increased to 100 mmHg in the operating room, the left ventricular free wall rupture became "blow out" type. After establishing extracorporeal circulation, we glued Xenomedica and autologous pericardium using gelatin-resorcin-formaldehyde glue (GRF glue) to the linear tear without damaging the myocardium and coronary arteries and reducing left ventricular volume. Bleeding was completely controlled. This experience suggests that this procedure might be effective for left ventricular free wall rupture.
