Intramyocardial Hematoma After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion: Two Case Reports

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...

Safety and Efficacy of a Plug‐Based Vascular Closure Device After Percutaneous Microaxial Flow Pump in the Treatment of Complex and High‐Risk Indicated Patients

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Femoral large‐bore vascular access is an important and constantly increasing technique in interventional treatment. Temporary circulatory support in complex and high‐risk indicated patients (CHIP) presents a challenge in terms of postinterventional access site closure.

Selective Use of Pericardial Window and Drainage as Sole Treatment for Hemopericardium from Penetrating Chest Trauma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Penetrating cardiac injuries (PCIs) are highly lethal, and a sternotomy is considered mandatory for suspected PCI. Recent literature suggests pericardial window (PCW) may be sufficient for superficial cardiac injuries to drain hemopericardium

Cardiac tamponade in hypothyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2014
Pericardial effusion in overt hypothyroidism is common (incidence 3–6%), but cardiac tamponade and pretamponade as a presentation in newly diagnosed hypothyroidism is rare. For patients diagnosed with cardiac tamponade without sinus tachycardia, hypothyroidism should be suspected.1 Evaluation of hypothyroidism is often overlooked during the initial ...

Accurate and Safe Directional Coronary Atherectomy Using the X‐Ray Detector's Calculated Optimal Angular View

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) is effective for bifurcation lesions but carries a risk of coronary perforation, due to geographical and recognition errors during the procedure. Geographical errors involve incorrect targeting of plaque‐free areas, whereas recognition errors stem from the misinterpretation of visual ...
