BACKGROUND To describe a case with dislodgement of dental bridge with clasps covering the vocal cords, in a patient who was successfully intubated using tube exchanger under video-assisted laryngoscopy. STUDY DESIGN, METHODS Clinical case record with a video clip. SETTING University hospital. CASE PRESENTATION A 83-year-old woman presented with dislodgement of her dental bridge whilst eat...

In conclusion, phrenic nerve stimulation due to LV lead dislodgement can mimic an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Pacemaker rotation leading to lead displacement was previously described by Bayliss et al. as Twiddler’s syndrome [1] and has a reported frequency of 0.07–7 % [2]. It was named after patients who twiddled with the device resulting in rotation and lead dislodgement. However, the syndrome ...

Since the 1980s the use of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) has been a safe and reliable method of enteral feed− ing in patients with functioning normal bowel [1]. A 74−year−old woman with Alz− heimer s disease and a history of a cere− brovascular accident (CVA) was admitted after dislodgement of her PEG feeding tube. It had been placed 3 years previous− ly using a standard pull−throug...

Coronary stent dislodgement is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. We report a rare case of dislodgement of two intracoronary stents. On withdrawal of two balloon catheters, one with a guide wire was mechanically distorted from the left main (LM) to the proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) while the other was dislodged from the LM to the ostial left circumflex a...

A self-expanding stent has recently been introduced for the treatment of wide-neck aneurysms. We describe two cases of stent malposition within large aneurysms. In the first case, the stent was dislodged during microcatheterization. This was managed by placement of a second stent through the interstices of the first followed by aneurysm coiling. In the second case, after deployment, the proxima...
