Pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage from a pulmonary artery false aneurysm after Swan-Ganz catheterization in a thoracic aortic aneurysm patient: a case report [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
Pulmonary artery (PA) rupture caused by a PA Swan-Ganz catheter is a rare complication but remains fatal in almost 50% of cases. False aneurysm of the PA is a rare presentation of PA rupture and should be considered as a possible diagnosis in a patient ...

Safety and pharmacokinetics of mosliciguat, a new, inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase activator, in healthy adult subjects

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mosliciguat (BAY 1237592), the first soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) activator in a dry powder inhaler (DPI), could potentially treat pulmonary hypertension with a more targeted delivery than systemic sGC stimulators. We report safety and tolerability of mosliciguat in healthy men.

Unusual venous route of pulmonary artery catheter in a liver transplant recipient: pericardiophrenic or highest intercostal vein?: a case report [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
We report an extraordinary case in which the venous route for pulmonary artery catheterization was unusual. A 41 year-old woman with an end-stage liver disease underwent a living-donor liver transplantation.

The Impact of a Visualized Steerable Sheath on Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for First‐Time Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: A Prospective, Randomized, Single‐Blind Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A 3D electroanatomical mapping (3D‐EAM) visualized steerable sheath was designed to improve catheter placement and reduce radiation exposure during ablation, an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, prospective randomized data comparing the procedural and clinical outcomes of visualized and non‐visualized ...

Unconventional retrieval of a guidewire fragment from the pulmonary district following retrograde access for chronic limb-threating ischemia

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Intraprocedural endovascular device fracture and migration is an uncommon complication, with potential catastrophic outcomes. In a 75-year-old woman, retrograde puncture of the superficial femoral artery led to accidental femoral vein puncture and wire ...

Pulmonary artery rupture as a complication of Swan-Ganz catheter application. Diagnosis and endovascular treatment: a single centre’s experience

Advances in Interventional Cardiology, 2016
Introduction: The placement of a Swan-Ganz catheter into the pulmonary artery may lead to a number of complications (2–17%). In less than 0.2% of cases Swan-Ganz catheterization results in serious vascular damage – pulmonary artery rupture (PAR).

Comparative Outcomes of Transcatheter Versus Surgical Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary valve replacement is frequently required in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD). Comparative real‐world outcomes between percutaneous transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVR) and surgical pulmonary valve replacement (SPVR) remain incompletely characterized. We evaluated outcomes and resource utilization for

Branch-to-Total Pulmonary Artery Area Ratio as a Predictor of Flow Limitation in Tetralogy of Fallot: MRA and Phase Contrast MRI Study

Current Research in MRI
Objective: The severity of branch pulmonary artery stenosis and associated flow restriction can be assessed using catheter angiography and lung perfusion scintigraphy. However, these techniques are time-consuming and have various limitations.

Lower AKI Risk and Higher Survival With Microaxial Flow Pump Support During Elective PCI: A Propensity Score‐Matched Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous, smaller studies suggested nephroprotective effects of micro‐axial flow pump (mAFP) during PCI. This study aimed to compare renal outcomes of high‐risk PCI with mAFP or intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) support.

Mechanical Thrombus Aspiration for a Young STEMI Patient With Plaque Erosion: Time for a Stent‐Free Approach?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 34‐year‐old man with no cardiovascular history presented with anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and a large thrombotic occlusion of the mid left anterior descending artery. Following potent antithrombotic therapy and mechanical thrombus aspiration, angiography revealed vessel patency without residual significant stenosis, allowing ...
