Implanting CRT via Endo-Cardiac Route When Tricuspid Valve is Metallic
نویسندگان
چکیده
Prosthetic tricuspid valve is an obstacle to implant cardiac devise. Cardiac Resynchronization therapy is one of the most popular therapies for heart failure patients these days. We present this case of prosthetic tricuspid valve and left ventricular dysfunction which we overcome the problem by implanting two leads to coronary sinus branches. Patient improved in few months of follow up.

Tricuspid Valve Endocarditis in an Intravenous Drug Abuser: A Case Report
Recently, there have been more reports of cardiac valve infections due to the increasing number of intravenous (IV) drug abusers and chronic renal failure patients. Among cardiac valves, tricuspid valve is most commonly affected in the course of endocarditis. Appropriate management of these patients is a challenging and controversial issue in the field of cardiac surgery. Treatment options in s...
متن کاملA comparison of left ventricular endocardial, multisite, and multipolar epicardial cardiac resynchronization: an acute haemodynamic and electroanatomical study.
AIMS Alternative forms of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), including biventricular endocardial (BV-Endo) and multisite epicardial pacing (MSP), have been developed to improve response. It is unclear which form of stimulation is optimal. We aimed to compare the acute haemodynamic response (AHR) and electrophysiological effects of BV-Endo with MSP via two separate coronary sinus (CS) lead...
متن کاملRare Cause of Pacemaker Lead Interference: Tricuspid Valve Myxoma
Introduction: Primary tumors of the heart are a rare finding, and the most common benign tumors are cardiac myxomas, accounting for up to 80% of cases. They are of endocardial origin therefore the prevalence of myxomas in the atrial septum is highest. Among myxomas left atrial ones are the most common (75%), followed by right atrial ones (18%). Case Presentation: We present a case of a cardiac ...
متن کاملTricuspid Valve Regurgitation Following Temporary or Permanent Endocardial Lead Insertion, and the Impact of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
BACKGROUND While some studies indicate that permanent pacemaker implantation is associated with development of tricuspid regurgitation (TR), other studies indicate no association.Little is known about the impact of temporary lead insertion during ablation procedures, or whether therapy (CRT) prevents TR post-device implantation. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesized that permanent, but nottemporary endo...
متن کاملObstacles preventing biventricular pacing mitigated with lead extraction and His bundle pacing to achieve effective cardiac resynchronization
Introduction Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) achieved by implanting a lead via the coronary sinus (CS) system significantly improves well-being, symptoms, morbidity, and mortality in appropriately selected populations with advanced heart failure (HF) or pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. Despite improvements in implant technique, lead design, and pacing algorithms, there still remains a sig...
