Does ventricular endoaneurysmorrhaphy restore ventricular function in patients with large postinfarction ventricular aneurysms?
Ventricular endoaneurysmorrhaphy using a tailored Dacron patch is a feasible technique for restoring ventricular function in patients with extensive postinfarction aneurysms.
Denton A. Cooley (1989) studied this question.
