Key Teaching Points•Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest can be the initial presentation of congenital long QT syndrome.•Patients with syndrome type 2 presenting torsades de pointes may respond favorably to intravenous isoproterenol, as shown in this case.•Genetic counseling and testing is an important tool evaluation family members patients syndrome. •Out-of-hospital
Introduction: The incidence of mechanical complications related to myocardial infarction has decreased over the last decades, and revascularization certainly plays a major role in this change. However, mortality still remains elevated. This is case acute papillary muscle rupture secondary leading cardiogenic shock. Case Presentation: A 71-year-old woman presented an outside hospital complaining chest pain shortness breath. An electrocardiogram was obtained revealed depression ST segments...
A 13-year-old boy presenting with palpitations was diagnosed Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome. We elected to bring him the electrophysiology lab for evaluation of accessory pathway and potential ablation. Structural assessment coronary sinus electro-anatomical mapping retrograde venography led discovery a great cardiac vein having separate insertion from into high right atrium. The localized left lateral portion mitral annulus treated successfully radiofrequency Such venous anatomical variant...
Abstract Balloon breach during cryoablation To date, this is the first published report of a double‐wall while using cryoballoon ablation catheter treatment patient with atrial fibrillation; however, there have been previous balloon breaches in both second and third‐generation usage. In report, we describe case intraoperative care that was necessary to stabilize patient. Additionally, review other known cases breaches, examine safety systems mitigate some potential complications.
Blunt chest trauma has seldom been reported as a cause of rupture an aortic valve cusp. We report the case 63-year-old man who had motor vehicle collision resulting in transection descending thoracic aorta, splenic pseudoaneurysm, and cusp causing severe regurgitation. Despite replacement valve, he died multiorgan failure.
Abstract Cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantation is complicated by a significant rate of failure to place left ventricular lead via the coronary sinus. The present case describes one such ironically leading resynchronization. patient's QRS narrowing subsequent postimplant atrial pacing alone suggests that bradycardia‐dependent phase 4 block was indirect but exclusive cause intraventricular conduction delay. Thus, should be considered when at faster resolves wide interval.
