Kirse et al recently described an endoscopic extended ventriculotomy procedure in which most of the lateral wall of the supraglottis, including the false vocal fold and laryngeal ventricle, is resected.
Although surgery is the preferred method, cardiopulmonary bypass, and right ventriculotomy to assess VSD may cause prolonged procedure time and subsequent complications.
In this procedure, a left ventriculotomy is performed, and the ventricular aneurysm is reduced in size by exclusion of the scar from the endocardial volume of the left ventricle.
