| Abstrakt: |
Two cases of sepsis following ventricular aneurysmectomy are presented. In both, the source of sepsis was an infected caridac suture line in which Teflon felt strips were used to reinforce the closure. One patient had a pseudoaneurysm and a chronic empyema of the left side of the chest, and the second had a ventriculocutaneous fistula. Early operation with removal of the foreign body is warranted in this major complication of a ventricular aneurysmectomy. |
