Abstract

BACKGROUND: Surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR) has been used to control adverse ventricular remodeling and improve cardiac function in ischemic cardiomyopathy. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to collect and analyze all available evidence on the utilization and efficacy of SVR.

METHODS: An electronic database search was performed to identify all retrospective and prospective studies on SVR for ischemic cardiomyopathy in the English literature from 2000 through 2020. A total of 92 articles with a collective 7,685 patients undergoing SVR were included in the final analysis.

RESULTS: The mean patient age was 61 years (95% CI: 59-63) and 80% (78-82%) were male. Congestive heart failure was present in 66% (54-78%) and angina in 58% (45-70%). Concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting was undertaken in 92% (90-93%) while 21% (18-24%) underwent mitral valve repair. Pre

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, SVR reduces left ventricular volumes and improves systolic function leading to symptomatic improvement.
