Noninvasive assessment myocardial viability: Current status and future directions
TL;DR: This review discusses the tracer and CMR imaging techniques, the pooled observational data, the results of clinical trials, and ongoing investigation in the field, and explores the emerging potential of combined PET/CMR imaging for myocardial viability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical ventricular restoration for the treatment of heart failure
TL;DR: Surgical ventricular restoration (SVR) is described, which returns the ventricle to a normal volume and shape in ischemic, valvular, and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and its integration with left ventricular assist devices and cell therapy.

TL;DR: Adding surgical ventricular reconstruction to coronary artery bypass grafting may worsen long-term survival in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy with moderate to severe right ventricular dysfunction, which reflects advanced left ventricular remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current Status of Surgical Ventricular Restoration for Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
TL;DR: The historical background and observational data that established a role for surgical ventricular restoration are reviewed, and it is argued that the limitations are such that the study cannot provide any reliable conclusion on the role of SVR.

TL;DR: Adding surgical ventricular reconstruction to CABG reduced the left ventricular volume, as compared with CABGs alone, however, this anatomical change was not associated with a greater improvement in symptoms or exercise tolerance or with a reduction in the rate of death or hospitalization for cardiac causes.

TL;DR: The group of patients forming this study includes 130 cases of LV reconstruction since 1984, the three main indications for surgery were angina (40%), cardiac failure (35%), arrhythmias (10%).
