Usually, hypokinesis is caused by a lack of blood supply to a specific area of the heart.  If it is damaged cells (medically termed stunned or hibernating) but not necrotic (dead), the cells can treated.  I had the problem years ago, and stent and medication increased the blood supply to the deficit and the heart cells were revitalized, my EF was below 29%.  Your uncle does not require surgery, but if the condition is ischemic due to a blocked/partially blocked vessel, medication and/or a stent implant would probably be effective.  Depending on the area of the heart that has a wall movement disorder there may not require any intervention. Hope this helps

Left Atrium 3.5 Cm >>>>normal
Left Ventricle 4.6x2.0 cms EF : 60% >>>>(normal)
IVS 1.0cms PW : 1.0cms>>>>normal
Arota 3.8 Cms ????>>>normal, if size is greater than 4.0 cm it is considered an aneursym..  
pericardium : no E/o free fluid >>>>normal

QUOTE: "CAD.Regional wall motion abnormality + jypokinetic LAD Territory good

There is no dysfunction indicated by 60%EF.  Your uncle should get information why there is some left ventricle wall inpairment.  In any event, it is not serious at the present time.
