Comparative mortality outcomes of linear versus patch ventriculoplasty in patients with ventricular aneurysm: a meta-analysis
Key Points
To evaluate and compare the mortality outcomes associated with linear and patch ventriculoplasty for ventricular aneurysm.
Conducted a meta-analysis comparing the mortality outcomes of linear and patch ventriculoplasty.
Analyzed short-term and long-term mortality rates across multiple studies.
Short-term mortality rates are similar between both techniques.
Patch ventriculoplasty may lead to significantly lower long-term mortality compared to linear ventriculoplasty.
Abstract
Compared with linear ventriculoplasty, patch ventriculoplasty yields similar short-term mortality but may confer a significantly lower long-term mortality.
