Late appearance of traumatic ventricular septal defect.
A ventricular septal defect with delayed appearance is describedfollowing stab wound of the heart in a woman. The diagnosis was confirmed by left ventricular angiography. Damage to the left anterior descending coronary artery, documented by selective coronary arteriography, might have played an important role in late development of the shunt. The septal defect was closed successfully by a patch...
متن کامل[Post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal defect].
Post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal defect corresponds to the rupture of the ventricular septum between the healthy and infarcted parts. It is a rare complication still associated with a high mortality rate. Its diagnostic should be evoked in case of pathologic cardiac auscultation and confirmed by emergent transthoracic echocardiography. Hemodynamic stabilisation, mainly with the ins...
متن کاملLate surgical repair of a traumatic ventricular septal defect
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) complicates approximately 1-5% of patients presenting with penetrating chest trauma, however not all VSDs are evident at the time of initial presentation to the emergency department. Acute closure of traumatic VSDs is indicated in patients with a large defect and haemodynamic compromise, however closure may be delayed in smaller defects in order to minimise opera...
متن کاملTranscatheter closure of a traumatic ventricular septal defect.
MOTS CLÉS Communication interventriculaire ; Occlusion percutanée A 24-year-old man was admitted with stab wounds to the left anterior chest and profuse blood loss. Clinical examination revealed hypotension and tachycardia related to cardiac tamponade. He presented a blade injury above the left clavicle.

متن کاملPercutaneous closure of a post-traumatic ventricular septal defect with a patent ductus arteriosus occluder
OBJECTIVE Ventricular septal defects resulting from post-traumatic cardiac injury are very rare. Percutaneous closure has emerged as a method for treating this disorder. We wish to report our experience in three patients who underwent percutaneous closure of a post-traumatic ventricular septal defect with a patent ductus arteriosus occluder. METHODS We treated three patients with post-traumat...
