Abstract
Surgical ventricular restoration (SVR) remains a challenge in cases of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. It is even more challenging when multiple ventricular segments are affected and located near the base of the left ventricle (LV). Here, we report a case wherein dual SVRs were performed successfully in a patient with cardiac sarcoidosis with complete atrioventricular (AV) block and dyskinesis of the basal septum and inferior wall. The method involved endoventricular patch plasty through a lateral ventriculotomy for partial left ventriculectomy (PLV).
