In one patient, who was opened up twice, a husky piece of metal was too deeply embedded in the right ventricle wall to permit removal. This man, now 42, works part time, and his main complaint is that he was twice subjected to unnecessary surgery. Not one of the 40 men has developed the agonizing pain of angina pectoris.
