Abstract

Background: The trans femoral ipsilateral approach is often adopted for endovascular treatment (EVT) for better steerability of guidewires or better device deliverability. However, contrary to the trans femoral contralateral approach, ipsilateral antegrade puncture sometimes causes peculiar bleeding complications. Case presentation: A 76-year-old female underwent EVT for chronic occlusion of the left superficial femoral artery (SFA) via the ipsilateral antegrade approach. After guidewire passage, we inflated the drug-coated balloons, but angiography showed blood flow stasis at the mid segment of the SFA. We also ensured prolonged balloon inflation, which resulted in favorable blood flow. While trying to ensure hemostasis, the blood pressure remained decreased, but neither bleeding nor superficial hematoma were observed at the puncture site. After hemostasis was achieved, we removed the surgical drape and noticed a swelling in the mid-portion of the thigh, distant from the puncture point. We then approached the left common femoral artery (CFA) contralaterally. Angiography showed continuous bleeding from a little bit distally to the sheath insertion point that was spreading through an intramuscular space. We stopped the bleeding with balloon tamponade inside the CFA. Angiography after hemostasis demonstrated blood flow stasis at the mid-segment of the SFA, similarly as that seen before. We confirmed compression of the SFA by a large hematoma using both intra- and extra- vascular ultrasound. Therefore, we deployed a self-expandable stent at the compressed SFA position. Finally, we achieved favorable blood flow on angiography. Conclusion: We encountered a case that latent bleeding unrecognized in the surgical field persisted while prolonged inflation of DCB was conducted at just proximal SFA. We could have avoided bailout stenting by noticing the bleeding incident in a timely manner. Prediction and prevention are essential for all kinds of procedural complications in EVT.

Abstract

Background PTPN11 is ubiquitously expressed and has a variety of phenotypes even in a single heart. We examined LEOPARD syndrome (LS) in a patient with PTPN11 variants through pathological, electrophysiological, and anatomical studies. Case summary A 49-year-old man with no previous medical history was brought to our emergency department because of syncope. An electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed alternating bundle branch block, and echocardiography revealed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-like morphology with systolic anterior motion of the posterior mitral valve. Atrioventricular block, left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, and ventricular tachycardia were considered the differential diagnoses; however, the treatment plan was difficult to determine. An electrophysiological study revealed the cause of the ECG abnormality to be accelerated idioventricular rhythm, and the programmed ventricular stimulation was negative. Genetic testing revealed LS with PTPN11 variant, which was speculated to be the cause of these various unique cardiac features. The cause of syncope was considered to be exacerbation of LVOT obstruction due to dehydration, and the patient was treated with oral beta-blockers. Implantable loop recorder observation for 1 year revealed no arrhythmia causing syncope, and an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and pacemaker were deemed unnecessary for primary prevention of syncope. During 2.5 years of follow-up, the LVOT peak velocity fluctuated between 2.5 and 3.5 m/s, but the patient remained stable with no recurrent syncope. Conclusion We confirmed that LS is distinct from other cardiomyopathies using characterization, physiological, electrophysiological, and pathological examinations. Evidence supporting a specific treatment strategy for LS is limited, and understanding the pathogenesis may help establish effective treatment strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
