title: [Left ventricular ruptures after the mitral valve replacement].
abstract: 7 cases of left ventricular rupture after the mitral valve replacement, which occurred per 900 operations performed in our clinic, were analyzed. A successful closure of the defect has been managed in 2 cases. In all cases the external closure with liners and patch plasty was used. In two cases the autopsy revealed a transmural myocardial infarction, underdiagnosed preoperatively, which had caused a rupture.
