Abstract

Left ventricular free wall rupture is a fatal complication of myocardial infarction for which infarctectomy and reconstruction of the left ventricle using a prosthetic patch under cardiopulmonary bypass are performed. However, these surgical treatments remain challenging. Left ventricular free wall rupture secondary to acute myocardial infarction was diagnosed in an 86-year-old man. We performed sutureless repair of the left ventricular free wall rupture without cardiopulmonary bypass. During the operation, a pre-gluing bovine pericardial patch with Hydrofit^® was placed twice on the ruptured site and manually pressed to provide complete hemostasis. The postoperative course was uneventful. This sutureless technique has the benefit of avoiding sutures in the fragile infarcted myocardium and might be effective for left ventricular free wall rupture treatment.
