Abstract

A case of cardiac arrest due to left ventricular stab wound was resuscitated by open cardiac massage and surgery. The experience was concluded as follows: 1. Under light anesthesia, bleeding was controlled by immediate surgery, which might have increased the survival rate. 2. Sufficient oxygen administration and proper anti-shock therapy provided an excellent prognosis.
