A randomized placebo-controlled trial with amiodarone for persistent atrial fibrillation in rheumatic mitral stenosis after successful balloon mitral valvuloplasty.

Objective: Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia in patients with rheumatic heart disease (RHD). This study was conducted to determine the maintenance of sinus rhythm with amiodarone therapy following DC cardioversion (DCCV), early after successful balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV).

Methods: Patients were randomized to amiodarone group and placebo group and their baseline characteristics were recorded.

Percutaneous coronary intervention in a rare variety of single coronary artery.

We present a case of 50-year-old male having unstable angina. A rare type of single coronary artery was identified during the Coronary angiogram. The left anterior descending (LAD) and left circumflex artery (LCX) had originated from the proximal segment of right coronary artery along with significant lesion in LCX.

Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds for LMCA with double vessel disease under IVUS guidance.

An 80-year-old male patient, presented with chest pain. ECG showed ST elevation in leads V2 to V4 and T wave inversion in leads V2-V6. Check angiogram revealed ostial LMCA 70% lesion & mid-LAD 90% lesion and LCX proximal 80% lesion.
