TI  - Endocavitary patch repair for a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm: an alternative 
      approach.
PG  - 278-80
AB  - We present a case of postinfarction posterolateral left ventricular wall 
      pseudoaneurysm with severe mitral regurgitation and poor left ventricular 
      function. The patient had New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart 
      failure at the time of surgery, which was performed on an emergency basis. The 
      surgical approach included coronary revascularization, surgical posterior mitral 
      leaflet detachment with patch closure of the pseudoaneurysm neck from inside of 
      the left ventricular cavity followed by mitral valve reconstruction, and 
      subsequent implantation of a mitral annuloplasty ring.
