Surgical Treatment of Adult Williams-Beuren Syndrome with Pulmonary Arteriovenous Fistula.

Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a genetic disease involving the gene deletion of a chromosome. It is sporadically caused by the disruption of the elastin gene at the locus 7q11.23, and it occurs in as many as 1:7,500 individuals [Zucker 2018].

Atrioesophageal fistula after atrial fibrillation catheter ablation: A case report.

Rationale: Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation with associated high mortality rates.

Patient Concerns: A 42-year-old male patient who underwent catheter ablation in local hospital 20 days ago because of persistent AF was admitted to our Emergency Room with unconsciousness and high axillary temperature and white blood cell count. Craniocerebral CT scan found multiple infarct lesions in both frontal and occipital lobes.
