Epidemiology of Postoperative Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia in Infants Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: JET is treated in 6% of patients with substantial center variability. JET contributes to increased postoperative resource utilization. High center variability warrants further study to identify potential modifiable factors which could serve as targets for improvement efforts to ameliorate deleterious outcomes.PMID:38484909 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.002 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)

Clinical Outcomes and Echocardiographic Predictors of Reintervention After Interrupted Aortic Arch Repair
AbstractLeft ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) remains a significant complication after primary repair of interrupted aortic arch with ventricular septal defect (IAA-VSD). Clinical and echocardiographic predictors for LVOTO reoperation are controversial and procedures to prophylactically prevent future LVOTO are not reliable. However, it is important to identify the patients at risk for future LVOTO intervention after repair of IAA-VSD. Patients who underwent single-stage IAA-VSD repair at our center 2006 –2021 were retrospectively reviewed, excluding patients with associated cardiac lesions. Two-dimensional ...

Surgical and transcatheter treatments of mechanical complications of acute myocardial infarction
Learning objectives To review the epidemiology, clinical presentation and diagnosis of mechanical complications of acute myocardial infarction including ventricular septal defect, free wall rupture and papillary muscle rupture. To discuss the existing data on outcomes of medical therapy, surgery and percutaneous intervention. To examine the limitations of currently available treatment modalities and need, as well as opportunity, for ongoing evolution and improvement of surgical and percutaneous therapies. To highlight the importance of the heart team in facilitating complex, shared decision making in treating these conditi...

Complete Percutaneous Retrieval of Migrated VSD Occluder Device from the Pulmonary Artery: Management of a Catastrophic Complication
Turk Kardiyol Dern Ars. 2024 Mar;52(2):149-152. doi: 10.5543/tkda.2023.93350.ABSTRACTTranscatheter closure of muscular ventricular septal defects (VSD) remains a safe and effective method with low complication rates. However, device migration can pose a significant challenge to interventional cardiologists due to potential mortal consequences. A 21-year-old female presented to our clinic with exertional dyspnea and was diagnosed with a muscular VSD. The defect was percutaneously closed using an Amplatzer occluder device. On the first post-procedural day, the patient experienced repeated episodes of coughing and mild hemopt...
