Elective correction of intracardiac lesions resulting from penetrating wounds of the heart.
Controversy exists regarding the timing and technique of total correction of traumatic intracardiac lesions. Five patients with penetrating wounds of the heart received emergency treatment aimed at securing normal haemodynamics. No attempt was made to identify intracardiac lesions at this stage. Cineangiography two months to seven years later showed aorto-right ventricular fistulae in all patie...
متن کاملTraumatic aorto-right ventricular fistula from stab wound
Penetrating cardiac injuries are commonly instantaneously lethal. However, numerous delayed manifestations of cardiac injury, including traumatic ventricular septal defect, ventricular aneurysms, right pulmonary artery to left atrial fistula, valvular regurgitation, and aorto-right ventricular fistula, are all described in the literature. Here, we present a case of aorto-right ventricular fistu...
متن کاملAorto-Right Ventricular Tunnel: An Uncommon Problem with a Common Solution
Aorto-ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital malformation, and aorto-right ventricular tunnel (ARVT) is an even less common entity. Here, we report the case of a 3-month-old female who underwent successful surgical closure of ARVT. The origin of the right coronary artery was proximal to the ostium of the tunnel.

The exact incidence is unknown, estimates ranging from 0.5% of fetal cardiac malformations to less than 0.1% of congenitally malformed hearts in clinico-pathological series. Approximately 130 cases have be...
متن کاملIntracardiac Thrombosis in Sickle Cell Disease
In patients with sickle cell disease, thrombotic microangiopathy is a rare complication. Also in sickle cell disease, intracardiac thrombus formation without structural heart diseases or atrial arrhythmias is a rare phenomenon. We herein describe a 22-year-old woman, who was a known case of sickle cell-βthalassemia, had a history of recent missed abortion, and was admitted with a vaso-occlusive...
