Three years after myocardial infarction, a 60-year-old man had congestive heart failure caused by left ventricular aneurysm with mitral regurgitation. He underwent the following concomitant operations: (1) patch reconstruction for a left ventricular aneurysm and (2) mitral plasty for a torn chordate and mitral regurgitation by using valvuloplasty, a shortening chordae and a prosthetic ring. A postoperative examination indicated that his cardiac function had markedly improved.
