Management of Transvenous Leads in Patients With Iatrogenic Lead Perforation. [PDF]

J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol
ABSTRACT Introduction Iatrogenic lead perforation is a rare but serious complication of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation. Evidence on percutaneous management of subacute or delayed cases remains limited. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 38 patients treated for iatrogenic lead perforation between January 2012 and October 2024.

Pericardiocentesis practice in the United Kingdom [PDF]

International Journal of Clinical Practice, 2007
Pericardial effusions frequently present challenging clinical dilemmas. Whether or not to drain an effusion, and if so by what method, are two common decisions facing cardiologists. We performed a survey to evaluate pericardiocentesis practice in the United Kingdom (UK).A total of 640 questionnaires were sent to all cardiologists in the UK Directory of

Retrospective Study Evaluating Outcomes Following Palliative Radiotherapy With or Without Chemotherapy for Dogs With Presumed Cardiac Hemangiosarcoma. [PDF]

Vet Comp Oncol
ABSTRACT Canine cardiac hemangiosarcoma (cHSA) represents a complex clinical challenge in that those afflicted have an acute risk of death due to cardiac tamponade and high morbidity and mortality given the frequency of metastasis. Previous studies show that radiation therapy (RT) can decrease the risk of tamponade; however, an optimal approach has yet
