Author ProfileAbstract
Here, we describe a successful catheter-based closure of a recurrent
post-infarction VSR using a new custom-made device in a 50-year-old man
who had previously undergone emergency surgical repair for acute PIVSR
with bovine pericardial patch, coronary artery bypass grafting and
mitral valve replacement with mechanical prosthesis.
