Abstract

Cardiac tamponade is a life-threatening complication during left atrial appendage (LAA) closure. We report a 77-year-old woman who underwent a transseptal puncture for LAA closure with the Watchman device that was complicated by tamponade. This was successfully treated with the deployment of a Cardioform 25-mm septal occluder device. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.), Graphical abstract, Cardiac tamponade is a life-threatening complication during left atrial appendage (LAA) closure. We report a 77-year-old woman who underwent a transseptal…

Abstract

Coronary thrombus aspiration was developed to remove thrombus, prevent distal embolization, and prepare the vessel for definitive intervention. However, its use is now limited by the risk of stroke. We describe a case where appropriate aspiration technique likely prevented central embolization of a coronary thrombus. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.), Graphical abstract, Coronary thrombus aspiration was developed to remove thrombus, prevent distal embolization, and prepare the vessel for definitive intervention.

Abstract

We report an unusual case of subacute right atrial perforation by a screw-in pacemaker lead that migrated into the right lung causing hemopneumothorax 2 weeks after the procedure. After transvenous simple manual traction and minithoracotomy repair of the right atrial wall, the lead was repositioned without any complications. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.), Graphical abstract, We report an unusual case of subacute right atrial perforation by a screw-in pacemaker lead that migrated into the right lung causing hemopneumothorax…

Abstract

Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation is known to be a safe procedure. However, inappropriate lead insertion can lead to serious complications. We present a case where an inappropriate lead placement resulted in puncturing the lung parenchyma, and successful management of the lead-related pneumothorax through thoracoscopic lead removal and partial lung resection. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.), Graphical abstract, Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation is known to be a safe procedure. However, inappropriate lead insertion can lead to serious…

Abstract

Percutaneous transaxillary access is currently considered an acceptable alternative to transfemoral approach for large-bore access, especially in the setting of hostile iliofemoral arteries. Few published reports exist concerning complications of upper extremity access. We describe development of an axillary artery pseudoaneurysm and its management following transaxillary access. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.), Graphical abstract, Percutaneous transaxillary access is currently considered an acceptable alternative to transfemoral approach for large-bore access, especially in…

Abstract

We describe the management and clinical decision making in a cardiogenic shock patient with a free-floating left ventricular thrombus found during temporary mechanical support with an Impella CP. The management of these patients can be challenging because there are no guidelines or data to support any particular treatment strategy. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.), Graphical abstract, We describe the management and clinical decision making in a cardiogenic shock patient with a free-floating left ventricular thrombus found during temporary…

Abstract

We describe a case of giant pseudoaneurysm of the right pulmonary artery compressing the left atrium after percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation and right pulmonary artery dilatation. Such a complication mimicking an intracavity left atrial mass and treated successfully by stent placement has never, to the best of our knowledge, been reported. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.), Graphical abstract, We describe a case of giant pseudoaneurysm of the right pulmonary artery compressing the left atrium after percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation…
