    Abstract Background: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a temporary and reversible systolic abnormality of the left ventricular apical area resembling a myocardial infarction. Cardiac rupture due to TCM is a rare but fatal complication. Without cardiac surgery, 94% of patients with left ventricular free wall rupture (LVFWR) due to TCM die. Furthermore, successful surgical cases are rare. We report herein the successful treatment of multiple LVFWRs due to TCM using a sutureless repair.
    Case presentation: An 80-year-old man quarreled with his daughter and had a sudden onset of chest pain. He was transferred to our hospital in shock. Electrocardiography showed ST elevation and contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a bloody pericardial effusion. Emergent coronary angiography showed no significant stenosis. Cardiac arrest ensued because of cardiac tamponade. Emergent surgery was undertaken and three oozing lacerations on the lateral and inferior walls were noted. A sutureless repair was performed using TachoSil® patches. We also applied Surgicel Nu-Knit® absorbable hemostat with Hydrofit® where TachoSil® failed to completely adhere because of hematoma formation and achieved complete hemostasis. We diagnosed the ruptures due to TCM according to the Mayo criteria. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 71.
    Conclusions: A sutureless repair using TachoSil® patches and Surgicel® with Hydrofit® is a minimally invasive and effective method for the treatment of multiple LVFWRs due to TCM.

    Abstract We report on the efficacy of the Prevena incisional wound management system, a negative pressure wound care system, in patients at a high risk of wound infection following cardiac surgery.
    Methods: Ten patients with a mean Fowler risk score of 4.6( 1.6~9.9) were included. The Prevena system was applied immediately after surgery and used for 5 days while negative pressure of -125 mmHg was continuously applied, and the condition of the wound and surrounding skin was evaluated immediately after removal of the Prevena system.
    Result: Ten patients had completely healed wounds, and no skin damage around the wound due to negative pressure after removal of the Prevena system was observed. No skin damage was observed around the wound after removal of the Prevena system, and no wound complications occurred until discharge.
    Conclusions: The Prevena system is safe, easy to use, and useful for wound healing in patients at a high risk for wound complications after cardiac surgery.
