Abstract
- Laceration of the left ventricular wall is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of electrophysiological studies. We describe emergency surgery on a 64-year-old man who suffered cardiac tamponade after an electrophysiological study, which revealed an extensive laceration in the inferior left ventricular wall, requiring repair by a patch and glue technique, with a good clinical outcome.
