  • Title: Traumatic wound of the heart: value of intraoperative colour Doppler flow imaging.
    Author: Richardson JE, Duncan WJ, Bharadwaj B, McMeekin JD.
    Journal: Can J Cardiol; 1988 Oct; 4(7):338-40. PubMed ID: 3228758.
    Abstract:
    A patient who sustained a traumatic ventricular septal defect from a stab wound is presented. Intraoperative echo-Doppler imaging provided an additional diagnosis of avulsion of anterior papillary muscle of the tricuspid valve prior to cardiotomy. It was concluded that intraoperative echo-Doppler imaging proves a useful guide for cardiac surgery following penetrating trauma.
