Dissimilar atrial rhythms. A patient with interatrial block.
A patient with type A Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and prolonged interatrial conduction intervals developed atrial flutter during the course of an electrophysiological study. The atrial flutter blocked along the left-to-right conduction pathways in a Wenckebach pattern. The dissimilar atrial rhythms of right atrial tachycardia and left atrial flutter evolved as the interatrial block increased...
متن کاملAtrial reentrant tachycardia after heart transplantation.
A68-year-old man presented with an incessant supraventricular tachycardia 3 months after heart transplantation. A dual-chamber pacemaker had been implanted immediately after surgery for bradyarrhythmias. Electrophysiological study was performed with a multipolar halo catheter (20 electrode pairs) in the right atrium and bior quadripolar catheters in a high lateral, His, and coronary sinus ostiu...
متن کاملOperative Technique and Atrial Tachyarrhythmias After Orthotopic Heart Transplantation.
There is conflicting evidence that operative technique affects the risk of atrial tachyarrhythmia after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). We sought to determine whether OHT by bicaval (BC) technique is associated with a lower risk of atrial tachyarrhythmia than biatrial (BA) technique. Consecutive patients who underwent OHT between 1997 and 2007 at the University of Minnesota were include...
متن کاملGiant left atrial thrombus 17 years after orthotopic heart transplantation.
We present the case of a 66-year-old woman who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation 17 years earlier for dilated cardiomyopathy. After 7 years allograft coronary vasculopathy developed requiring coronary artery angioplasty. In year 15 postoperatively she experienced congestive heart failure and she became symptomatic requiring diuretics and digoxin treatment. In year 16 postoperatively a ...
متن کاملAtrial Arrhythmias After Lung Transplantation
Background—Atrial arrhythmias (AAs) including atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial tachycardia (AT) are often observed after cardiothoracic surgery. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence and mechanism of AAs after lung transplantation. Methods and Results—All patients (n 127) after bilateral sequential lung transplantation followed at our institution over 20 years were included. All patients re...
