Acute and sudden death secondary to cardiac tamponade during anaesthetic recovery in a 21‐year‐old draught mule

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This case report is of educational value and contributes to the literature because it describes a unique death after anaesthesia due to cardiac tamponade from a rare cardiac neoplasm. In trying to diagnose the origin of chronic sinusitis, a geriatric mule mare was anaesthetised and during recovery, died acutely.

A Rare Case of Primary Purulent Pericarditis Caused by Streptococcus constellatus

Medicina, 2023
Background: Bacteria-caused acute pericarditis is a very rare entity. It is usually associated with an underlying infection or compromised immune system. Primary purulent pericarditis in a previously healthy individual is highly unexpected; therefore, it

Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Successful treatment of cardiac tamponade with systemic lupus erythematosus using belimumab and hydroxychloroquine

Indian Journal of Rheumatology, 2023
Cardiac tamponade with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a rare but fatal complication. Although cardiac tamponade is typically managed with pericardiocentesis and medication, there is no definitive treatment for this condition.

Leadless Pacemaker Implantation in High‐Risk Patients: Real‐World Outcomes From a Multicenter Israeli Registry

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Transvenous pacemakers are effective but carry significant short‐ and long‐term complications. Leadless pacemakers were developed to overcome these limitations, however, data in high‐risk patients ineligible for transvenous systems remain limited.
