Abstract

Four surgical procedures are proposed to achieve an efficient remodelling of the ventricles with a low injury to heart muscle, for the treatment of the dilated cardiomyopathy. Those procedures are based the partial ventriculectomy technique of Batista an on the new conception of the macroscopical myocardium structure of the ventricles evidenced in the second half of the present century.
