Comparison of Conventional versus Steerable-Catheter Guided Coronary Sinus Lead Positioning in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Resynchronization Device Implantation.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare conventional versus steerable catheter guided coronary sinus (CS) cannulation in patients with advanced heart failure undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). BACKGROUND Steerable catheter guided coronary sinus cannulation could reduce fluoroscopy time and contrast medium use during CRT implantation. METHODS 176 consecutive patients...
متن کاملxcessive movement of the coronary sinus lead of CRT-D and severe tricuspid regurgitation
as pre-existing abnormalities, such as tricuspid valve annular dilatation or pulmonary hypertension, may be present. The mechanism of tricuspid regugirtation plays an important role in the choice of treatment. If tricuspid regurgitation caused by the endocardial lead is managed by surgery, medical treatment is needed for other reasons. Defining the precise anatomical relationship between the tr...
متن کاملsuccessful implantation of coronary sinus lead after balloon angioplasty of a coronary vein stenosis
a 55-year-old man referred for cardiac resynchronization therapy (crt) due to severe heart failure. a severe stenosis in the coronary sinus vein after the posterior branch disallowed the insertion of the lead. nevertheless, the stenosis was dilated and the left ventricle (lv) lead was implanted in the lateral marginal branch.
متن کاملUnexpected challenging case of coronary sinus lead extraction
An 84-year-old woman implanted with cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator underwent transvenous lead extraction 4 mo after the implant due to pocket infection. Atrial and right ventricular leads were easily extracted, while the attempt to remove the coronary sinus (CS) lead was unsuccessful. A few weeks later a new extraction procedure was performed in our center. A stepwise approach ...
متن کاملSurgical epicardial left ventricular lead versus coronary sinus lead placement in biventricular pacing.
OBJECTIVE Biventricular pacing has demonstrated improvement in cardiac function in treating congestive heart failure (CHF). Two different operative strategies (coronary sinus vs. epicardial stimulation) for left ventricular (LV) pacing were compared. METHODS Since April 1999, a total of 86 patients (pts, age: 63+/-10 years) with depressed systolic LV function (mean ejection fraction 24+/-9%),...
