"The attack of the 52 cm lead": an unusual case of late cardiac perforation by a passive-fixation permanent pacemaker lead.

Abstract:

:We report a case of right ventricular perforation by a passive-tined permanent pacemaker lead detected 1 month after implantation. The pacemaker lead was seen to perforate through the myocardium and pericardium and moving freely in the mediastinum with no evidence of pericardial effusion. Extraction was uneventful.

  • Prognostic value of myocardial scar by magnetic resonance imaging in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Previous studies demonstrated that scar tissue assessed by late gadolinium enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-CMR) is associated with recovery of cardiac function after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) in patients with a history of myocardial infarction (MI). However, information o...
