[Artificial left ventricle between the apex of the heart and the ascending aorta (author's transl)].
The artificial left ventricule is placed in the paracardiac position to ensure a short circuit of the natural left ventricule which is left in position. The prosthesis is implanted on the tip of the heart to ensure wide drainage of the left ventricule and on the ascending aorta to obtain systolic injection under physiological hemodynamic conditions. On both sites of implantation are sutured dacron tubes which permit insertion of the prosthesis without interrupting the general circulation and its withdrawal by simple ligature of the tubes of dacron.
