  • Title: The curative excision of left ventricular hydatic cyst.
    Author: Tiryakioglu O, Vural H, Ozyazicioglu AF.
    Journal: Heart Lung Circ; 2009 Feb; 18(1):57-8. PubMed ID: 18082449.
    Abstract:
    This cystic mass located in apical region near inferior wall was also demonstrated with transoesophageal echocardiography and multislice computerised tomography (MCT). The cystic tissue was removed from the myocardium by peeling. The cyst was extracted entirely. Ventricular space was washed with hypertonic saline serum. Ventriculotomy was closed from inside with dacron patch and ventricular geometry was protected successfully. Sewing line was strengthened by using teflon stripes externally.
