Discordant Atrioventricular Connections
CONGENITALLY CORRECTED TRANSPOSITION IS A complex cardiac lesion that is often associated with ventricular septal defect, obstruction of the outflow tract of the morphologically left ventricle, and abnormalities of the morphologically tricuspid valve.1,2 Nomenclature for this lesion has been variable and confusing.1 In this review, we define, and hopefully clarify this terminology. The lesion i...
متن کاملSudden death in a case of cardiac amyloidosis immediately after pacemaker implantation for complete atrioventricular block.
We report a patient with cardiac involvement associated with primary amyloidosis presenting marked left ventricular (LV) wall thickening, severely decreased systolic and diastolic function, and complete atrioventricular block (CAVB), who died suddenly of cardiac arrest caused by electro-mechanical uncoupling occurring immediately after permanent pacemaker implantation. Post mortem examination s...
متن کاملIntracardiac repair of cardiac malformations with atrioventricular discordance.
Twenty-six patients with atrioventricular discordance and a variety of ventriculo-arterial connections have had appropriate intracardiac repairs. Seven of 26 patients (26.9%) died early postoperatively, but only two (11.1%) of 18 patients operated upon since May 1972 have died. Ten patients (40%) developed permanent complete heart block. Two patients died late postoperatively; 16 (84.1% of thos...
متن کاملOrthotopic liver transplantation from cardiac death donors in the mouse: a new model and evaluation of cardiac death time
Objective(s): The goal of this research was to develop a mouse orthotopic liver transplantation (LTx) model from donor-after-cardiac-death (DCD) grafts. Materials and Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the experimental group or the sham group. The mice in the experimental group were divided into three groups according to the warm ischemia time (WIT) of liver graft: normal LTx, WIT 30 minut...
متن کاملLong-term prognosis after cardiac pacing in atrioventricular block.
The long-term prognosis after cardiac pacing in atrioventricular block was assessed by a follow-up study of 48 patients in whom pacing had been introduced 5 years or more before analysis. The one-year survival rate was 8i .3 per cent and the 5-year survival rate was 58 3 per cent. These figures are substantially better than the survival rate reported in patients notpaced. The mortality has been...
