Single-catheter approach for ablation of the slow pathway in a patient with type IV Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia using a magnetic navigation system.
Szili-Torok T, Jessurun E, Jordaens LJ Related Articles Single-catheter approach for ablation of the slow pathway in a patient with type IV Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia using a magnetic navigation system. Acta Cardiol. 2008 Oct;63(5):647-50 Authors: Szili-Torok T, Jessurun E, Jordaens LJ Patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV have thin-walled, friable arteries and veins. Invasive procedures carry a significantly increased risk for perforation of blood vessels. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate the feasibility and potential benefits of using a stereotactic magnetic navigation system (MNS) for mapping and ablation under these very special circumstances. A 45-year-old woman is presented with daily episodes of typical atrio-ventricular nodal re-entry tachycardias (AVNRT) and known Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV. Transcatheter ablation procedure of the AVNRT was undertaken using the MNS, with a non-traumatic single floppy catheter and the capability of advanced navigation. PMID: 19014012 [PubMed - in process]
A right ventricular infarction disguised as an anterior infarction due to an occluded isolated right ventricular branch.
Coosemans M, Koevoets R, Vydt T Related Articles A right ventricular infarction disguised as an anterior infarction due to an occluded isolated right ventricular branch. Acta Cardiol. 2008 Oct;63(5):641-5 Authors: Coosemans M, Koevoets R, Vydt T We report a case of abrupt closure of the right ventricular branch of the right coronary artery due to stenting. This closure caused marked ST-elevations in the precordial leads suggesting a problem in the left coronary artery. This phenomenon is scarcely reported in the literature. We discuss the typical electrocardiographic features of an isolated right ventricular infarction and we also give an anatomical model to elucidate them. PMID: 19014011 [PubMed - in process]
In-stent late total occlusion following left main coronary artery stenting.
Canbay A, Ozcan O Related Articles In-stent late total occlusion following left main coronary artery stenting. Acta Cardiol. 2008 Oct;63(5):639-40 Authors: Canbay A, Ozcan O PMID: 19014010 [PubMed - in process]
