Abstract
- An 83-year-old female with congestive heart failure[ New York Heart Association(NYHA) classification III ] due to left ventricular aneurysm, aortic stenosis( AS) with an aortic valve area of 0.66 cm2 and moderate tricuspid regurgitation, underwent endoventricular circular patch plasty using inverted graft insertion technique, aortic valve replacement (AVR) and tricuspid annuloplasty (TAP) successfully. It is highly probable that moderate aortic stenosis and localized apical transmural infarction had been gradually getting worse and they coincidentally caused both progressed AS and ventricular aneurismal change in our case.
