Etiology and Long‐Term Outcome of Patients Undergoing Pericardiocentesis

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Pericardial effusions can be caused by a variety of disorders. The frequency of the underlying diseases varies with patient population; therefore, previously reported series are not necessarily representative of other populations.

A Rare but Severe Long‐Term Complication of an Implantable Chamber

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Long‐term implantable ports may cause severe complications even years after placement. This case highlights the importance of verifying catheter integrity and tip position before reusing a dormant central venous access device, as delayed mechanical erosion can lead to pericardial effusion and life‐threatening cardiac tamponade.

Outcomes of Focused Double Extrastimuli Mapping and Ablation in Ventricular Tachycardia

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 137-148, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Conventional substrate mapping for scar‐related ventricular tachycardia (VT) often fails to fully delineate critical arrhythmogenic components. Functional mapping strategies using extrastimuli have shown promise but are limited by procedural complexity.

Assessing the Feasibility of Radiofrequency Wire‐Based Transseptal Puncture in Fluoroscopy‐Only Pulsed Field Ablation Workflows

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 194-198, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Safe and effective left atrial (LA) access is a critical step in catheter ablation procedures. While radiofrequency wire (RFW)‐based transseptal puncture (TSP) offers advantages over mechanical needle (MN) techniques, adoption in Europe has been limited due to concerns about the need for costly adjunctive imaging.

Patient and Procedural Factors Associated With Same‐Day Discharge Following Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From the DISRUPT‐AF Registry

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 149-156, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Same‐day discharge (SDD) after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) may improve patient satisfaction and optimize healthcare resources. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) offers a favorable safety profile, potentially enabling broader adoption of SDD strategies.

Cardiac tamponade in a patient with primary hypothyroidism

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2011
Pericardial effusion is frequently found in patients with hypothyroidism, but it is rarely associated with cardiac tamponade. Hypothyroidism complicated by cardiac tamponade is rarely referenced in the medical literature.
