Post-cardiac injury syndrome following transvenous pacing: case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Post-cardiac injury syndrome (PCIS) is an inflammatory process involving the pericardium secondary to cardiac injury. It can develop after cardiac trauma, cardiac surgery, myocardial infarction, and, rarely, after certain intravascular procedures. We report a rare case of an iatrogenic cardiac rupture followed by PCIS with delayed inflammatory pericardial effusion after pacemaker implantation. A comprehensive literature review on this topic is provided.

Papillary muscle rupture of the mitral valve complicating removal of a permanent transvenous electrode.
ince the introduction of transvenous cardiac pacing S by Furman and Schwedell in 1959, numerous reports of unusual complications have appeared. To o w knowledge, rupture of a papillary muscle o r any valvular component has not been reported previously. This report describes a case of mitral valve papillary muscle rupture upon removal of a transvenous pacing electrode. Furthermore, this patient ...
متن کاملManaging cross talk between a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and a dual-chamber unipolar pacemaker system
Introduction In cases of patients who have contraindications to transvenous pacing leads but still require pacing, surgically placed epicardial pacing leads are often used. If such a patient warranted implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), a subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) system would be ideal from the standpoint of avoidance of transvenous leads, but devicedevice interaction with the epicardi...
متن کاملA case of pacing lead induced clinical superior vena cava syndrome: a case report
INTRODUCTION Transvenous pacing is a relatively safe treatment with a low complication rate, but serious thromboembolic complications have been reported to occur in 0.6% to 3.5% of cases. Superior vena cava obstruction syndrome is generally an uncommon but serious complication occurring in <0.1% of patients. However, when it occurs it carries with it significant morbidity and mortality. CASE ...
متن کاملSuperior vena caval stenosis: a complication of transvenous endocardial pacing.
Superior vena caval obstruction is a rare complication of transvenous endocardial pacing and is usually the result of thrombus formation round the pacing electrode (Kosowsky and Barr, 1972). We report a case of superior vena caval obstruction without thrombus formation secondary to localised stenosis at the site of the proximal cut end of a retracted endocardial electrode. This complication of ...
متن کاملStrategies to reduce the risk of transvenous lead extraction: an example using a hybrid approach in a patient with a haemodialysis fistula.
Haemodialysis (HD) patients are at increased risk of vascular access complications with device therapy. We report a case of transvenous defibrillator lead extraction from the ipsilateral side as an HD fistula. The procedure was successfully performed using a hybrid approach, with extraction of the lead with a powered sheath, and surgical cut-down and closure of the subclavian vein defect.
