چکیده

An 86-year-old woman underwent transfemoral aortic valve implantation (23-mm SAPIEN). She required immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Contrast angiography revealed periaortic blood extravasation (Fig. 1, panel C). Immediate operation revealed an aortic tear in the suprannular position (Fig. 1, panel D) that was repaired with direct suture. A 19-mmMitroflowwas implanted. The patient was discharged home on postoperative day 9. www.elsevier.com/locate/ejcts European Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery 39 (2011) 788

Unexpected left ventricular free-wall rupture following an aortic catheter-valve implantation.

Our experience with the Sapien trans-apical aortic valve (Edwards Lifesciences Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) has been straightforward without per-procedural mortality except in 1/16 consecutive cases who developed non-apical haemorrhage early after valve implantation. We describe the case of an 84-year-old female carrying a very high operative risk (logistic EuroScore of 44%), who underwent a trans-ap...

Conservative management of aortic root rupture complicated with cardiac tamponade following transcatheter aortic valve implantation

Aortic root rupture and cardiac tamponade during transcatheter aortic valve implantation is a frightening complication with high mortality rate. A conservative management of this complication could represent an initial strategy, especially in high-risk patients, to avoid emergent cardiac surgery. This conservative management includes: Immediate detection of pericardial effusion by echocardiogra...

Monitored anesthesia care with dexmedetomidine in transfemoral percutaneous trans-catheter aortic valve implantation: two cases report

Percutaneous trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is recommended for inoperable patients with severe aortic stenosis at high risk for conventional aortic valve replacement. Originally, TAVI was mostly performed under general anesthesia. Here we describe two cases of transfemoral TAVI performed under monitored anesthesia care (MAC) with dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine provides sedati...
