Rare Complications of Pseudoaneurysms of the Superior Vena Cava After Transvenous Lead Extraction.

ABSTRACT: Superior vena cava laceration has been reported as a catastrophic complication that requires immediate surgical intervention during transvenous lead extraction. Hereby, we present 2 cases of pseudoaneurysm formation at the superior vena cava after transvenous lead extraction, which were successfully managed without invasive treatment. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Successful treatment of lead-related superior vena cava syndrome in combination with transvenous lead extraction and venous stenting.

Project description:We experienced a case of lead-related SVC syndrome, which was successfully treated using unique transvenous lead extraction technique and endovascular stenting. This case also suggests that intravascular ultrasound facilitates decision-making on whether the interventionist should perform TLE alone or add stenting in case of a lead-related venous obstruction.

Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava: A Rare Association.

Project description:Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most frequent abnormality in the general population with the frequency of 0.1% to 0.5%. It results from the failure of the involution of the left anterior cardinal vein. Right and Left SVC can coexist together in 80% to 90% of cases. Association of PLSVC with ano rectal malformation (ARM) is very rarely reported. Hence, here is a report of a unique case of PLSVC in a female neonate with ARM.

Leadless pacing in a patient with superior vena cava syndrome undergoing lead extraction and percutaneous angioplasty.

Project description:Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome is an uncommon but serious complication associated with chronic transvenous implanted leads. In the recent past, open-heart surgery combining lead extraction and epicardial implant was usually performed to reduce syndrome recurrences. We describe the case of a 78-year-old man successfully treated by percutaneous lead extraction associated with venous balloon angioplasty and reimplantation of leadless pacemaker. <Learning objective: Chronic vascular complications following lead implantation usually require surgical treatment, due to the need for subsequent epicardial implantation. Percutaneous lead extraction along with leadless pacing allowed effective non-surgical management of chronic complications of transvenous pacing.>.

Absent right superior vena cava and persistent left superior vena cava: An incidental finding.

Project description:A patient with Marfan syndrome undergoing Bentall operation was found to have an absent right superior vena cava and persistent left superior vena cava. The dilation of coronary sinus raised the suspicion of persistent left superior vena cava. The diagnosis was confirmed by agitated saline contrast echocardiography and computed tomography of the chest.

Absent right superior vena cava.

Project description:A patient planned to be performed catheter ablation. However, three-dimensional contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography revealed isolated persistent left superior vena cava. We should know such an anatomical abnormality especially when central venous catheter or peripherally inserted central catheter is inserted from right jugular vein or right subclavian vein.

A rare case of isolated persistent left superior vena cava diagnosed by echocardiography.

Project description:BackgroundThe persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is an infrequent vascular variant. PLSVC with absent right superior vena cava, also known as isolated PLSVC, is an exceptionally rare entity. In this case we present a patient with isolated PLSVC draining to coronary sinus, diagnosed incidentally during echocardiography.Case presentationA 35-year-old man underwent a transthoracic echocardiography which showed an enormously dilated coronary sinus. Hand-agitated saline was injected via peripheral intravenous cannulas. The contrast appeared firstly in the coronary sinus before it opacified the right atrium. Since this was also visible by the right antecubital saline injection, it indicated an extremely rare case of PLSVC with the absence of right superior vena cava which was confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance.ConclusionsThe finding of a distinctively dilated coronary sinus in echocardiography led us to further investigation using agitated saline that revealed an infrequent anomaly termed isolated PLSVC. The in-depth diagnosis of this vascular variant is crucial considering that it may lead to important clinical implications, such as difficulties with central venous access, especially in the current era of a rapid development of cardiac device therapies.
