Teflon-buttressed sutures plus pericardium patch repair left ventricular rupture caused by radiofrequency catheter ablation
BACKGROUND Cardiac rupture often occurs after myocardial infarction or chest trauma with a high mortality rate. However, left ventricular rupture caused by radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is extremely rare. METHODS We describe a case of a 61-year-old male who survived from left ventricular rupture caused by a RFCA procedure for frequent ventricular premature contractions. Surgical exp...
متن کاملMultiple cardiac perforations following radiofrequency catheter ablation: case report and literature reviews.
INTRODUCTION Multiple cardiac ruptures after radiofrequency catheter ablation that requires surgical repair are uncommon. METHODS AND RESULTS We describe a 64-year old male patient with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation who had a cardiac tamponade following radiofrequency ablation. Surgical exploration demonstrated two ruptures in the left atrium, one in the right atrium, and one hematoma in the...
متن کاملImpending rupture of the left atrium after impaction of left atrial ablation catheter.
A 60-year-old male presented with chronic atrial fibrillation. A trans-femoral catheter ablation was planned. The catheter was impacted in the left atrial wall (Fig. 1). Consequently, the procedure was interrupted before achieving resynchronisation. Catheter withdrawal was only possible after median sternotomy and closed manipulation of the catheter to release it.
متن کاملMeasurement of cardiac output in ventricular rupture following acute myocardial infarction--pulmonary artery catheter vs transpulmonary thermodilution--a case report.
We compared the cardiac output measured by the transpulmonary aortic single indicator thermodilution method with that by the pulmonary artery catheterization in a patient with ventricular septal rupture after acute myocardial infarction. Though the former cardiac output was lower than the latter, in the presence of the ventricular septal rupture, the cardiac outputs were equal after the rupture...
متن کاملگزارش یک مورد پارگی بطن چپ
Cardiac rupture, particularly rupture of the left ventricular wall, has a very high mortality rate. In this occasion, even if injured patients being alive when carried to the hospital, many of them will die due to following possible reasons: severe bleeding, cardiac tamponade, wasting time for routine and usual diagnostic procedures or transferring the injured to other hospital equipped for car...
