Conclusion
LIVE procedure is a hybrid and minimally-invasive procedure to treat a negatively remodeled LV by plication of myocardial scar tissue in the context of ischemic cardiomyopathy after an anterior MI. Its indications are specific and patient selection is crucial to achieve an optimal result. After clinical assessment, multimodality imaging is essential to confirm indication, rule-out contraindications and to plan the procedure. Since the procedure is highly customizable by the combination of its different technical options, it allows for a true patient tailored approach to achieve the optimal results in improving ventricular performance.
