Project description:Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), commonly referred to as "broken heart syndrome," is a distinctive form of acute and reversible heart failure that primarily affects young to middle-aged individuals, particularly women. While emotional or physical stressors often trigger TTS, rare cases have been linked to interventional procedures for congenital heart disease (CHD). Despite its recognition, the exact causes of TTS remain elusive. Research indicates that dysregulation in autonomic nerve function, involving sympathetic and parasympathetic activities, plays a pivotal role. Genetic factors, hormonal influences like estrogen, and inflammatory processes also contribute, unveiling potential gender-specific differences in its occurrence. Understanding these multifaceted aspects of TTS is crucial for refining clinical approaches and therapies. Continued research efforts will not only deepen our understanding of this syndrome but also pave the way for more targeted and effective diagnostic and treatment strategies. In this report, we conduct an in-depth analysis of a case involving a TTS patient, examining the illness progression and treatment procedures. The aim of this analysis is to enhance the understanding of TTS among primary care physicians. By delving into this case, we aspire to prevent misdiagnosis of typical TTS cases that patients may present, thereby ensuring a more accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Project description:The patent ductus arteriosus is a very common condition in preterm infants, and a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus increases morbidity and mortality in these vulnerable patients. However, despite numerous randomized controlled trials, there is no consensus regarding management. Medical therapy is typically offered as first-line treatment, although it yields limited success and carries the potential for severe adverse events. In recent years, there has been rapid development in transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure primary with the use of the Amplatzer Piccolo Occluder, and this has gained widespread acceptance as a safe and effective alternative to surgical ligation in extremely low-birth-weight infants weighing over 700 g. This article aims to provide an appraisal of the patient selection process, a step-by-step procedural guide, and a comprehensive review of the outcomes associated with this approach.

Project description:Multiple congenital heart disease in the small preterm newborn such as severe narrowing of aortic valve and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a therapeutic challenge. We report successful transcatheter antegrade balloon dilatation of the aortic valve and device closure of the PDA in a 1700-gram preterm newborn. Meticulous planning and team work aids in such transcatheter intervention. <Learning objective: Preterm newborn babies rarely have multiple major structural cardiac lesions complicating the care. Transcatheter intervention for multiple congenital cardiac lesions such as severe valvular aortic stenosis and large patent ductus arteriosus in a small preterm baby is challenging but feasible. Precise anatomical diagnosis and meticulous planning is essential for successful intervention with minimum complications.>.

Project description:ObjectiveRetrospective analysis of feasibility, safety and advantages of device closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) using only venous access.BackgroundArterial access for transcatheter device closure of PDA has been a standard practice, but has inherent complications, especially in infants.MethodRecords of patients who underwent PDA device closure from 2004 to 2012 were reviewed. Echocardiography was used for patient selection and for assessment of procedural outcome.Result151 out of 179 patients underwent PDA device closure with venous access alone, weighing 2.2-58 kg with half <10 kg and follow up of 6 months-8 years. Fluoroscopic time ranged from 2.2 to 16 min. Immediate closure was achieved in 146 patients. Two patients had new-onset left pulmonary artery turbulence and one had residual flow.ConclusionPDA device closure without arterial access can be accomplished safely and effectively in vast majority of patients including infants.

Project description:We describe the case of a 32-year-old man with history of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closed with an Amplatzer device 12 years earlier. Imaging investigations revealed a persistent large PDA and the device migrated in the right pulmonary artery. A new transcatheter PDA occlusion was attempted with optimal post-procedural results. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Project description:Patients with a large patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) can have several presentations. Many will be asymptomatic, some could develop severe pulmonary hypertension, and others can develop Eisenmenger syndrome. We have presented a case in which a PDA correction device was embolized to the abdominal aorta, 2 months after transcatheter closure of a large PDA. The patient presented with an acute abdomen. In the management of the case, we implemented a hybrid technique in the process of device retrieval. Transbrachial access and a lower abdominal midline incision were accomplished to dislodge the device from the supraceliac aorta to the aortic bifurcation. The Amplatzer Ductal Occluder (St Jude Medical Inc, St Paul, Minn) was extracted through a small arteriotomy of the distal abdominal aorta. The procedure was followed by a dramatic improvement of the ischemic liver and bowel, evidenced by the vanishing of the cyanotic hue of the liver and normalization of the bluish discoloration of the intestine.

Project description:Aortic pseudoaneurysm is a rare but life-threatening complication after transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) with only a few reported cases in literature. We report a case of an 18-month-old child who was diagnosed to have pseudoaneurysm of the aorta after 6 months of transcatheter closure of PDA. It was diagnosed on routine follow-up on echocardiography evaluation. Computed tomography chest is the imaging modality of choice for evaluation of these patients which showed large saccular aneurysm arising from distal aortic arch beyond origin of left subclavian artery. Any aneurysm more than 30 mm should be treated irrespective of symptoms. Treatment modalities are surgical resection of the aneurysm (as in our patient) or thoracic endovascular aortic repair. In our case, surgical resection of aneurysm was performed.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12055-023-01619-z.

Project description:This study investigated the characteristics of congenital rubella syndrome (CRS)-associated cardiac complications, particularly patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). We reviewed the medical records of patients with CRS who were admitted to the Children's Hospital 1 in Vietnam between December 2010 and December 2012, and patients with CRS who underwent PDA transcatheter occlusion therapy at the cardiology department between December 2009 and December 2015. We compared the characteristics of PDA treated with transcatheter closure between children with CRS (CRS-PDA) and those without CRS (non-CRS-PDA) who underwent PDA transcatheter closure between July 2014 and December 2015. One-hundred-and-eight children with CRS were enrolled. Cardiac defects (99%), cataracts (72%), and hearing impairment (7%) were detected. Fifty CRS-PDA and 290 non-CRS-PDA patients were examined. CRS-PDA patients had smaller median birthweight (p < 0.001), more frequent pulmonary (p < 0.001) and aortic stenosis (p < 0.001), higher main pulmonary artery pressure, and higher aortic pressure in systole/diastole (p < 0.001 for each) than did non-CRS-PDA patients. The proportion of tubular-type PDA was higher in CRS-PDA patients (16%) than in non-CRS-PDA patients (3%) (p = 0.020). Tubular-type PDA was frequently seen in patients with CRS and accompanied by pulmonary/systemic hypertension and pulmonary/aortic stenosis; in these patients, more cautious device selection is needed for transcatheter PDA closure.

Project description:ObjectivesTo assess the safety and efficacy of percutaneous closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect (PmVSD) using patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) occluders.BackgroundWidespread use of conventional PmVSD closure devices has been limited by unacceptable high rate of complete heart block (CHB). The elegant design of PDA occluders is supposed to ease implantation, increase closure rate and minimize damage to adjacent structures. Thus, PDA occluders may reduce complications, especially the CHB, and offer a good alternative for PmVSD closure.MethodFrom September 2008 to October 2015, patients who underwent attempted percutaneous VSD closure using PDA occluders were included in the study. Patient demographics, echocardiography measurements, procedure details and follow-up data until October 2017 were collected.ResultsIn total, 321 patients with a mean age of 15.5±12.6 years and mean a weight of 33.3±20.5 kg were included in this study. The mean defect size was 4.8±2.1 mm. Implantation was successful in 307 (95.6%) patients. The median follow-up time was 63 months (24 to 108 months). The closure rates were 89.5%, 91.5%, and 99.3% after the procedure 24 hours, 6 months and 2 years, respectively. Major complications occurred in 5 (1.7%) patients during the procedure and follow-up, including persistent CHB in 2 (0.7%) patients and device embolization in 3 (1.0%) patients. No death, disability, or other major complication was detected.ConclusionPercutaneous closure of PmVSD using PDA occluders is feasible, safe and efficacious in selected patients.
