متن کاملunusual treatment of pacemaker pocket infection: a case report
pocket infection of a cardiac device is usually treated by removing the device and re - implanting it in a new site after complete treatment of the infection. this report illustrates a complicated case of pocket infection in the wake of the implantation of a permanent pacemaker (cardiac resynchronization therapy). the patient was treated conservatively through daily irrigation and dressing, bro...
متن کاملUnusual pacemaker lead placement in an unsuspecting heart.
During the implantation process, the pacemaker leads advanced easily into the atrium and ventricle from the left subclavian vein. On fl uoroscopy, the locations of the leads in the atrium and ventricle appeared atypical (Fig. 1). An intraoperative transthoracic echocardiography was then performed, showing the atrial lead into the left atrium (Fig. 2). The pacemaker leads were then repositioned ...
متن کاملAn unusual cause of pacemaker-induced severe tricuspid regurgitation.
Pacemaker (PM) induced tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common echocardiographic finding. Although mild or moderate TR is frequently observed, severe TR is rare. We report the exceptional observation of a severe TR due to leaflet malcoaptation occurring late after PM implantation and in the following weeks after an aortic valve replacement. Our hypothesis is that the aortic valve surgery has b...
متن کاملTwiddler's syndrome in children: an unusual cause of pacemaker failure.
Mechanical causes of pacemaker failure are well recognised. Twiddler's syndrome leading to pacemaker failure has been previously recognised in adults, but there have been no published reports of its occurring in children. Two cases leading to failure of the pacing system are reported. In the first twiddling led to fracture of the lead and in the second it led to displacement of the lead from th...
