| Summary: | Aim. To study the dynamics of left ventricular (LV) remodelling in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and reversible ischemic dysfunction, before and after myocardial revascularization. Material and methods. The study included 69 patients after MI. All participants underwent two-dimensional echocardiography (EchoCG), within 24 hours after hospital admission and one month after revascularization. After three-four days of treatment and clinical stabilization, the patients underwent stress EchoCG with dobutamine, to assess myocardial viability. Results. Complete or partial recovery of all asynergic myocardial segments was observed in 22 (Group I) and 19 (Group II) patients, respectively, while in 28 (Group III), LV aneurysm was detected. In most patients from each group, transluminal balloon angioplasty (TLBAP) with stent implantation was performed. The proportion of conservatively treated patients was maximal in Group III. Despite revascularization, in coronary patients with impaired myocardial viability (Group III), the increase in ejection fraction and reduction in end-systolic volume was significantly lower than in patients with viable myocardium. Sphericity index, relative wall thickness index, and myocardial stress parameters were increased in each group, although this increase was non-significant in Group III. After revascularization, a significant reduction in end-systolic volume, and a tendency towards enddiastolic LV volume reduction were observed in each group, being maximal in Group I. Conclusion. In MI patients with viable myocardium in dyskineticLV zones, revascularization surgery should be considered. |
