Role of Transesophageal Echocardiography in Guiding and Evaluating Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Patients With Non‐Organic Heart Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 30, Issue 4, July 2025.
This graphical abstract illustrates the application value of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) for patients with non‐organic heart disease (NOHD). The figure compares the maximum diameter of the left atrial appendage ostium measured by TEE and X‐ray angiography, showing that TEE measurements are ...

Technical difficulties during electronic cardiac device implantation in patients with persistent left superior vena cava

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
We report a case of persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC), discovered by chance during the cardiac electronic device placement procedure. PLSVCs are congenital anomalies of the thoracic vasculature, during which remnants of the left superior vena ...

Simulation‐Based Echocardiography Training Enhanced Competence and Self‐Confidence in Neonatal Residents

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, Volume 114, Issue 7, Page 1623-1632, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Mastering echocardiography scans is essential in neonatology, but bedside training can be difficult due to the instability of neonatal patients. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the benefits of simulation‐based training for residents learning echocardiography.

An unusual ‘bow tie’ image in pacemaker implantation

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2022
Upper venous system anatomic variations may cause difficulties during cardiac pacemaker implantation. Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) and absent right superior vena cava could be an arrhythmogenic source of atrial arrhythmias and cardiac ...

Inability to Utilize Retrograde Cardioplegia due to a Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava

open access: yesCase Reports in Anesthesiology, 2017
A persistent left superior vena cava is a congenital abnormality that affects a minority of the general population. While this finding is not hemodynamically significant in all patients, failure to recognize the altered anatomy in any of these patients ...
