Bigeminal Pulmonary Vein Ectopy Suppressed by Pulmonary Vein Isolation

International Heart Journal, 2008
A 58-year-old man with atrial fibrillation underwent pulmonary vein (PV) isolation (PVI). Bigeminal atrial premature beats persisted from the beginning of the PVI. The cardiac recordings from a basket catheter (BC) revealed the PV ectopic origin in the distal right superior PV.

Using the autologous innominate vein as a substitute for pulmonary arteries in a patient with pulmonary atresia and absent pulmonary arteries

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background Repair of the absence of the whole or major parts of pulmonary arteries is a challenge, and the choice of conduit material to reconstruct the pulmonary arteries is under dispute.

Meandering pulmonary veins [PDF]

Medicine, 2020
Abstract Rationale: Meandering pulmonary vein is a rare congenital pulmonary vascular anomaly. It presents unilateral single pulmonary vein that takes a circuitous route in the lung and drains normally into the left atrium. Most cases of meandering pulmonary vein have been reported to be right-sided.

Permissive role of reduced inwardly-rectifying potassium current density in the automaticity of the guinea pig pulmonary vein myocardium

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
The electrophysiological properties underlying the automaticity of the guinea pig pulmonary vein myocardium were studied. About 30% of the isolated pulmonary vein tissue preparations showed spontaneous electrical activity, as shown by glass ...

Pulmonary Vein Occlusion and Lung Infarction after Radiofrequency Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Case Reports in Pulmonology, 2020
Background. Pulmonary vein (PV) radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an effective technique for a selected group of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs (Alfudhili et al., 2017).
