Percutaneous closure of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. Adv Cardiol 2022; 18:101-110.

Abstract
The aim of the present study is to describe the indications, treatment effects, and patient outcomes of percutaneous management of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm (LVPA). The study materials were based on comprehensive literature retrieval since 2004. The mechanisms of LVPA formation can be divided into surgical, percutaneous, and medial disease related. Of the surgical mechanisms, coronary artery bypass grafting prevailed. The formation time was the longest in medical disease-related LVPAs up to 44.4 months. The percutaneous procedures succeeded on the first try in 79 (84.9%) patients, whereas failures were encountered during the percutaneous manoeuvres in 14 (15.1%) patients. Percutaneous closure of LVPA was especially indicated for patients carrying a high surgical risk. The iatrogenic traumas, such as left ventricular venting, should be avoided to prevent this complication. The preliminary cut-off valves of oversize 3.3 mm and oversize ratio 1.6 should be followed for reference for device choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improvements in revascularisation, including pharmacological, catheter-based and surgical, have resulted in improved outcomes for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), leading to decreased frequency of mechanical complications. Improvements in both techniques and technology have permitted select patients to be managed with a purely percutaneous, transcatheter strategy. Through systematic review, this study aims to synthesise the collective experience of percutaneous treatment of the mechanical complications of ischaemic heart disease. METHODS The search strategy queried the electronic databases PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2020. Studies highlighting the outcomes of patients receiving percutaneous treatment of post-myocardial infarction papillary muscle rupture (PMR), ventricular septal defect (VSD), left ventricular free wall rupture (FWR) and pseudoaneurysm (PA) were included. A qualitative review of studies was conducted for PMR, FWR and PA. A quantitative analysis was conducted for VSD. RESULTS Fifteen studies were included in the qualitative synthesis of the percutaneous management of PMR, 4 were included in the qualitative analysis of the percutaneous management of left ventricular FWR, 7 studies defined the outcomes of the percutaneous management of PA and 25 were included in the quantitative meta-analysis of the primary percutaneous management of post-MI VSD. For VSD, there were 43 failed procedures in 314 patients. The proportion of failed procedures was 15.9% and there were 174 deaths in 428 patients. 37.5% of patients experienced early mortality. CONCLUSIONS Although surgical techniques remain the gold standard, we have shown that percutaneous management may be a viable option in certain cases.

Abstract
Left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) is a rare but lethal complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Urgent surgery is essential but associated with high postoperative mortality. Even worse, LVFWR patients may experience sudden death without a chance for surgery. In this article, we report our successful transcatheter closure of a patient with the most extensive pseudoventricular aneurysm after AMI reported thus far. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a giant pseudoventricular aneurysm located in the inferior and lateral walls of the left ventricle; the rupture diameter was 28 mm, and the maximum tumor diameter was 90.2 mm. We used transcarotid approach (TCA) and atrial septal defect closure umbrella to complete the operation, which solved the lack of special interventional instruments to treat pseudoventricular aneurysm after AMI. In addition, we still needed to treat liver and kidney failure caused by hemolysis after operation, and undergone strict follow-up. In conclusion, transcatheter closure is practical and feasible for the treatment of pseudoventricular aneurysm after AMI, although hemolysis and decline of cardiac pumping function after the successful interventional treatment deserve special attention. Future multicenter studies are required to identify patients best suited for interventional treatment timing. And further developments in devices and delivery techniques are required in order to optimize interventional outcomes.

Abstract
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare but serious complication of acute myocardial infarction and cardiac surgery. While surgical intervention is the conventional therapeutic option, transcatheter closure can be considered in selected patients with suitable morphology of the pseudoaneurysm. We report a case of successful transcatheter closure of a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm orifice and isolation of the sac using an Amplatzer septal occluder.

Abstract
We report a case of percutaneous closure of multiple left ventricular aneurysms in a patient with inherited aortic-aneurysm syndrome-the Loeys-Dietz syndrome. One aneurysm was a true aneurysm in the subaortic region and the second one was a pseudoaneurysm at the left ventricular apex. The patient was a high-risk candidate for repeated operations. Both aneurysms were closed successfully percutaneously in staged procedures. There were no complications. The patient remained clinically well with stable echocardiographic results upon reassessment. This case illustrated that catheter-based closure of left ventricular aneurysms is a feasible approach in the context of connective tissue abnormalities related to the Loeys-Dietz syndrome.

Abstract
The risk of rupture of a left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm ranges from 30% to 45% in the first year. Open surgical repair carries high mortality related to anatomic complexity and patient comorbidities. Percutaneous closure may offer a viable alternative to surgical intervention in this cohort. Herein, we describe 3 unique cases of transcatheter LV pseudoaneurysm closure.

Abstract
A 67-year-old man with ischemic cardiomyopathy was transferred to our hospital in cardiogenic. During a video-assisted mini-thoracotomy for left ventricular epicardial lead implantation, a left ventricular free-wall rupture occurred and an emergency surgical repair was performed. Postoperatively patients experience left ventricular wall pseudoaneurysm. After stabilization of clinical conditions with aggressive medical treatment, we decided to attempt a minimally invasive procedure (ie, a transcatheter pseudoaneurysm closure). To date, few cases of device closure of left ventricle pseudoaneurysm are reported in the literature, usually secondary to myocardial infarction, and we believe this is the first case of left ventricle pseudoaneurysm after iatrogenic left ventricle laceration and surgical closure.
