The first septal perforating artery can anomalously originate from the aortic root. This finding is rare, benign and usually associated with other congenital coronary anomalies. We describe a patient with an isolated anomaly, a septal perforating artery which originated separately from the right sinus of Valsalva.

Nasal septal perforations (NSPs) are a common referral to specialist rhinology practice. A wide range of management options have been described but to be able to offer the most effective treatment modalities to our patients we must be able to capture quantitative data on patient symptom burden accurately and robustly.

Introduction: Permanent implantation of a DF-4 implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) lead in the left bundle branch area (LBBA-ICD) is the next paradigm in amalgamating cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and defibrillation. We systematically investigated feasibility/success rate, procedural caveats, and complications associated with a permanent DF-4 LBBA ICD implant and pertinent data at short-term follow-up.
Methods: We prospectively attempted implantation of 7 Fr Durata (Abbott, Chicago, IL, USA) single coil DF-4 ICD lead at the LBBA using a fixed-curve non-deflectable CPS locator delivery sheath.

Background: Nasal septal defects cause considerable morbidity and represent a challenging reconstructive problem. Traditional repair techniques have employed local intranasal tissues and allograft adjuncts. For large septal defects (>4-5 cm2), less than half are successfully resolved.

Infective endocarditis (IE) in children is a rare entity which presents a high rate of events during follow-up. Congenital heart disease, i particular ventricular septal defect (VSD), is the main predisposing condition to IE at those ages. The long-term risk of IE is of concern and whose follow-up can be complicated by a relapse of IE and reintervention.

A 72-year-old woman underwent left bundle branch area pacing, and subsequent transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated potential septal lead perforation. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed an intracardiac mass, which resolved with anticoagulation. This case highlights left ventricular thrombus as a potential complication of septal lead perforation.
