Remnant Pacemaker Lead Tips after Lead Extractions in Pacemaker Infections
Complete hardware removal is recommended in the case of patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections. However, the complete extraction of chronically implanted leads is not always achieved. The outcomes and optimal management of CIED infections with retained material after lead extractions have not been elucidated. In this case report, we present five patients wi...
متن کاملOn invariant manifolds attached to oscillating boundaries in Stokes flows.
Consider a steady Stokes flow bounded by a flat wall to which a separatrix, not tangent to the wall, is attached at point S. If the wall is made to slowly oscillate periodically with small amplitude in a longitudinal direction, then the Poincare map associated with this perturbed flow has a fixed point on the wall near S with an invariant manifold. This result also holds for flows bounded by a ...
متن کاملPacemaker lead endocarditis with hiccups (Kalayci)
Background: Lead-related infections that might develop after pacemaker implantation associated with high mortality and morbidity rates are challenging to manage and pose high-cost. Patients with lead-related infections usually present with fever, chills and fatigue and the treatment can be challenging unless the implant system is extracted. Case presentation: A 66-year old male patient who und...
متن کاملPacemaker lead endocarditis due to Brucellosis.
Infection of prosthetic devices or implants is a rare complication of Brucellosis. Pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator infections were previously reported in 6 patients. We report the first case of relapsing Brucellosis due to intracardiac lead endocarditis, which resolved only after removing the intracardiac leads and institution of appropriate antimicrobial therapy.
متن کاملPacemaker Lead Endocarditis Due to Trichosporon Species.
Pacemaker-related fungal endocarditis is an uncommon and unexpected complication. It is associated with high mortality rates. Due to nonspecific clinical symptoms, negative blood culture and delays in obtaining appropriate imaging studies; late diagnosis is common with fungal endocarditis. Hereby we are reporting a rare case of pacemaker lead endocarditis due to Trichosporon species. In literat...
