Iatrogenic ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a rare complication following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). An 83-year-old male underwent TAVI for severe aortic stenosis (AS) and was diagnosed with a peri-membranous VSD on echocardiography, which was not evident on pre-procedural imaging. This case highlights the risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis, and management of iatrogenic VSD following TAVI.

Background: Attempted catheter manipulation via the retrograde aortic approach carries a risk of aortic dissection (AD) during catheter ablation.
Objective: To determine the incidence, management, and outcomes of iatrogenic AD associated with ablation of ventricular arrhythmia (VA).
Methods: All patients who sustained iatrogenic AD during retrograde aortic VA ablation at 6 centers between January 1, 2011 and September 30, 2023 were prospectively identified.

Ventriculitis commonly arises as a complication of various central nervous system conditions. The causes of ventriculitis include both iatrogenic conditions, such as catheter-related infections, and non-iatrogenic conditions, such as community-acquired bacterial meningitis. The incidence of pyogenic ventriculitis associated with community-acquired bacterial meningitis remains unclear.
