Abstract

Left ventricular aneurysms may be repaired by the linear technique or endoventricular circular patch plasty technique. Choice of technique should be based on the individual patient, including cavity and aneurysm geometry. In this article, we describe the principles underlying decision making with 2 illustrative cases.
