Key result
Partial left ventriculectomy review outlines its current status and future role in heart failure management.
Why the study?
Discouraging clinical results and lack of scientific evidence decreased initial interest in partial left ventriculectomy, but factors contributing to success and failure have now been identified.
This review outlines the history, current status, and future role of partial left ventriculectomy for heart failure based on clinical observations and registry data.
Whereas discouraging clinical results and lack of scientific evidence decreased the initial interest in partial left ventriculectomy (PLV), factors contributing to success and failure have now been identified by clinical observations, theoretical analyses, and data from an international registry, which are herein reviewed to outline the current status and future role of this procedure as a treatment of heart failure.
