Objectives: Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) is one of the known complications after acute myocardial infarction. This study investigated the clinical results after surgical repair of VSD. Methods: This retrospective study included all patients undergoing surgical repair of VSD from 1996 to 2020 in Oman. Results: Out of a total of 75 patients, 62.5% were men, with a mean age of 59 years. The mean follow-up was 17.2 (7.5) years. Of the 75 patients, 34 (45.3%) patients died within 30 days. Total survival was 41.3% at 5 years, while the 10-year survival rate was 33.3%. Outcomes and predictors for 30 days mortality were the number of concomitant coronary involvement and anastomoses performed, residual postoperative shunt and postoperative dialysis. Conclusion: Even with surgical repair, early mortality of post-infarction septal defect is still considerably high. Early repair and the anatomically posterior rupture are predictors of early mortality. In patients surviving the immediate postoperative period, long-term survival is limited by pre-existing coronary artery disease, postoperative renal failure and the presence of a residual postoperative shunt.
