FIELD: medicine, cardiosurgery. SUBSTANCE: method deals with ventricular plasty by applying artificial ventricular apex as rigid cup or cup-shaped carcass supplied with casing and small fixation gasket fixed their basis. Sizes for artificial apex are chosen in accordance with defect area. Artificial ventricular apex is designed as an element with closed external edge made of artificial material. An element is of a rigid cup-shaped form, closed external edge is a circumference and it is supplied with openings to fix small fixation gasket to ventricular walls. Circumferential base diameter ranges within 16-65 mm, and distance from cup's top to base plane - within 5-20 mm. EFFECT: higher efficiency to restore pump cardiac function due to normalization of blood flow processes in ventricular cavity at different phases of cardiac cycle. 3 cl, 2 cl, 2 dwg
