Giant Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm and Myocardial Dissection as a Complication of Multiple Ventricular Tachycardia Ablations in a Patient with Cardiac Sarcoidosis
Late development of left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysms after ventricular tachycardia (VT) catheter ablation is a rare phenomenon, and very few cases have been reported in the medical literature. We describe the case of a giant LV pseudoaneurysm as a late complication of multiple epicardial and endocardial VT ablations in a female in her 50s with known cardiac sarcoidosis.
متن کاملRetrograde Coronary Venous Ethanol Infusion for Ablation of Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia.
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of ventricular tachycardia (VT) can fail because of inaccessibility to the VT substrate. Transarterial coronary ethanol ablation can be effective but entails arterial instrumentation risk. We hypothesized that retrograde coronary venous ethanol ablation can be an alternative bail-out approach to failed VT RFA. METHODS AND RESULTS Out of 334 consecutive...

left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of myocardial infarction. Since the risk of rupture is high , accurate diagnosis and if possible prompt surgical repair are of great importance. A 79 year old man was admitted because of dyspnea on e...
متن کاملNormal left ventricular systolic time intervals assessed by pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography in the Turkmen horse of Iran
The Turkmen horse is one of the oldest and purest breeds in the world. There is no information with regards to the normal echocardiographic parameters of this horse regarding to cardiac diseases. Pulsed-wave (PW) Doppler echocardiography was performed on 42 clinically normal 3- to 15-year-old racing Turkmen horses. There were 26 stallions and 16 mares. The left ventricular isovolumetric contrac...
متن کاملSurgical Treatment of Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm
INTRODUCTION Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare condition because in most instances ventricular free-wall rupture leads to fatal pericardial tamponade. Rupture of the free wall of the left ventricle is a cata-strophic complication of myocardial infarction, occurring in approximately 4% of pa-tients with infarcts, resulting in immediate collapse of the patient and electromechanical dissoc...
