Spontaneous closure of grade IV coronary perforation.

Indian J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg

Department of Cardiology, Army Hospital Research and Referral, New Delhi, 110010 India.

Published: January 2021

Previous coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is an independent risk factor for coronary perforation (CP) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of complexity of the cases. However in patients with prior CABG surgery, cardiac tamponade is rare because of local or regional pericardial adhesions.

Permanent Left Bundle Branch Area DF-4 Defibrillator Lead Implantation-Feasibility, Procedural Caveats, Safety, and Follow-Up.

J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol

January 2025

Department of Cardiac Electrophysiology and Pacing, Arrhythmia Heart Failure Academy, The Madras Medical Mission, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

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.

Infective endocarditis (IE) is an infection that affects the heart valves, endocardium, and great vessels. It has a mortality rate of approximately 30% per year, so early diagnosis is essential to reduce morbidity and mortality. Cardiac angio-CT triggered by electrocardiogram (ECG) has been considered in IE management guidelines in recent years, given its high spatial resolution, contributing to the diagnosis and evaluation of valvular complications (vegetations, perforations, dysfunctions), perivalvular (abscesses, pseudoaneurysms, prosthesis dehiscence, fistulas) and compromised coronary arteries (embolism), allowing early diagnosis and treatment.

Effect of gestational age on clinical features in necrotizing enterocolitis-associated intestinal perforation.

January 2025

Department of General & Neonatal Surgery, Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, National Clinical Research Center for Child Health and Disorders, Ministry of Education Key Laboratory of Child Development and Disorders, Chongqing Key Laboratory of Structural Birth Defect and Reconstruction, Chongqing, China.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical features of necrotizing enterocolitis-associated intestinal perforation (NEC-IP) in neonates with different gestational ages (GAs). Furthermore, we also want to identify the risk factors of poor prognosis for these patients.

Methods: The retrospective study of patients with NEC-IP was conducted with basic information, comorbidity, intraoperative findings, related treatment, and prognosis.

Rotablator-associated coronary perforation can be fatal if bailout is delayed. Successful bailout is typically defined as the disappearance of contrast extravasation after a haemostatic intervention. We report a case of recurrent cardiac tamponade in the subacute phase, wherein haemostasis appeared to have been achieved on angiography following the implantation of a covered stent during the index procedure.

Purpose: Cardiomyocyte death is a major cytopathologic response in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and involves complex inflammatory interactions. Although existing reports indicating that mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is involved in macrophage necroptosis and inflammasome activation, the downstream mechanism of MLKL in necroptosis remain poorly characterized in AMI.

Methods: MLKL knockout mice (MLKL), RIPK3 knockout mice (RIPK3), and macrophage-specific MLKL conditional knockout mice (MLKL) were established.
