Background: Constrictive pericarditis (CP) can arise from various causes, including post-operative degeneration, tuberculosis, and sequelae of pericarditis. Immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related disease is a rare but recognized cause of CP. However, the specific mechanisms underlying these aetiologies and pathologies remain unclear.

Background: Delayed lead perforation is a rare complication of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED). Clinical presentations range from completely asymptomatic to pericardial tamponade. Surgical lead extraction is recommended and transvenous lead extraction (TLE) with surgical backup is an alternative method.

Case Presentation: A 63-year-old female presented to our emergency department with altered mental status and hypotension. She was transferred from the outpatient interventional radiology suite after becoming unresponsive during the removal of an inferior vena cava filter. The patient arrived somnolent with no other history available.

Objective: Intracardiopulmonary migration of an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening complication. A previous systematic review including data through 2008 found that the most common cause for migration was operator error and that open thoracotomy was the best first option for management. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical presentation and causes of intracardiopulmonary filter migration, as well as the most commonly used management strategies over the past 15 years.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of implanting a leadless pacemaker via the jugular vein as an alternative to the traditional femoral vein method, particularly for patients where femoral access isn't viable.
- Researchers analyzed data from 100 patients implanted with the Micra™ leadless pacemaker through the jugular vein, finding that this method resulted in shorter procedure and fluoroscopy times compared to the femoral approach, with similar electrical performance of the devices.
- Complications were notably fewer with the jugular approach (only 2 reported) compared to 16 complications in the femoral method, suggesting that the jugular route is a safer option for leadless pacemaker implantation.*
