Beware of venous anomalies in young patients with sick sinus syndrome: A report of two cases of sick sinus syndrome with systemic venous anomalies

Heart Views, 2015
We report two young patients with symptomatic sick sinus syndrome admitted for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). On evaluation with echocardiography, one of them was found to have persistent left superior vena cava and venography showed absent ...

Tandem Approach for Transvenous Lead Extraction: Efficacy, Safety, and Operational Learning Curve

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The need for transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is rising due to increased cardiovascular device implantation and an aging population. While the superior access is standard, complex cases may benefit from the Tandem approach, combining femoral and superior access to improve efficacy and safety.

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

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
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.

Isolation of persistent left superior vena cava during atrial fibrillation ablation

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2015
Persistent left superior vena cava is a rarely seen anomaly but it may be an arrhythmogenic source for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, the complex anatomicregion between the left superior vena cava and the pulmonary veins may leads to ...

Superior vena caval syndrome caused by the tumor of the left hilum in a patient with unilateral persistent left superior vena cava diagnosed with multislice spiral computed tomography : a case report [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Unilateral persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is an infrequent finding with incidence of 18-20% among the individuals with PLSVC. The persistence of the left-sided superior vena cava is an effect of disturbances in development of the ...

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...
