This study examined the effects of @entity2911 procedure on long-term survival in @entity1 with previous transmural anterior @entity583 who were referred to a single experienced center for left ventricular reconstruction by endoventricular patch-plasty repair. Our aim was to evaluate the impact of this procedure on long-term survival and to assess the ability of preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative variables to predict late survival. Major indications for surgery were @entity1002 , @entity951 , @entity943 , or a combination of the three; 20 @entity1 underwent urgent cardiac surgery. The total group was 245 @entity1 , with 8.1% hospital mortality, and 19 @entity1 lost to follow-up [corrected]. The study group comprised 207 @entity1 . Many pre- and postoperative clinical, hemodynamic, and functional variables, as well as operative parameters, were studied by univariate analysis. During a mean follow-up period of 39+/-19 months, 30 end points were observed, including 27 @entity204 and 3 heart transplants. Event-free survival was 98%+/-1% at 1 year, 95.8%+/-1.4% at 2 years, and 82.1%+/-3.3% at 5 years. Cox regression analysis showed preoperative New York Heart Association functional class, ejection fraction, end systolic volume index, and remote asynergy as independent predictors of mortality. The procedure has a favorable impact on 5-year survival. Independent predictors of late survival are the preoperative functional status and the left ventricular systolic function.
