Long term outcomes post-ICD in Chagas cardiomyopathy and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy: A comparative analysis.
Int J Cardiol
January 2025
Department of Public Health, Universidade Federal do Ceara, Fortaleza, Brazil.
Background: Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCM) is a significant cause of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Although, implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICD) have been used for all forms of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM), studies on ICD efficacy in CCM are scarce.
Objective: The present study aims to compare the long-term outcomes, mortality rates, and the occurrence of tachycardia therapies after ICD implantation in patients with CCM and NICM.
Multipath joint ablation strategy for focal atrial tachycardia originating from patent foramen ovale: a case report.
Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Key Laboratory of Birth Defects and Related Diseases of Women and Children of MOE, Department of Pediatrics, West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Introduction: Focal atrial tachycardia (FAT) is predominant in the pediatric population. Recent research has identified cases of sustained FAT originating from the interatrial septum (IAS); a subset of cases presents a unique challenge, with foci originating from the peri-patent foramen ovale (peri-PFO), requiring specialized management during catheter ablation. Here, we present a rare case of peri-PFO-associated FAT that resulted in tachycardia-related cardiomyopathy and propose a comprehensive multipath joint strategy for the successful treatment of PFO-associated FAT.

It plays a key role in acute therapy of electrical storm, treatment of VTs in patients with structural heart disease (SHD), and can reduce VT burden. Here we report on 10-year clinical outcomes following VT ablation from patients enrolled in the prospective German Ablation Registry.

Department of Cardiology and Vascular Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran, Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia.
Background: This case highlights the management of concomitant acute myocarditis and congenital long QT syndrome with electrical storm and incessant Torsade de Pointes.
Case Presentation: An 18 years-old Southeast Asian para 1 abortus 0 (P1A0) postpartum patient with cesarean section owing to severe preeclampsia, acute lymphocytic myocarditis, and prolonged QT interval owing to long QT syndrome. She has incessant Torsade de Pointes treated with beta-blocker, lidocaine, overdrive pacing with a temporary transvenous pacemaker, left cardiac sympathetic denervation per video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation.
