1. If indicated, start fibrillation.<br />
2. Excision at the LV apex. The ideal<br />
site is the lateral wall of the left ventricle<br />
near the apex. Distance<br />
between LAD (septum) and center of<br />
the incision: approx. 2 cm in children,<br />
approx. 3 to 4 cm in adults.<br />
See Fig. 15, page 17. Make a cylindrical<br />
excision. Select the diameter<br />
of the excision so that it is slightly<br />
smaller than the cannula diameter.<br />
Start the incision remote from the<br />
septum.<br />
3. Inspect the incision edges and the<br />
area surrounding the incision <strong>for</strong> any<br />
thrombi and residual trabeculae and<br />
excise these completely.<br />
