RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) may be necessary due to infective and noninfective indications. We aim to identify predictors of 30-day mortality and risk factors between infective versus noninfective groups and systemic versus local infection subgroups. METHODS: A total of 925 TLEs between October 2000 and December 2016 were prospectively collected and dichotomized (infective group n = 505 vs noninfective group n = 420 and systemic infection n = 164 vs local infection n = 341). RESULTS: All-cause major complication including deaths was significantly higher (5.1%, n = 26 vs 1.2%, n = 5, P = 0.001) as well as 30-day mortality (4.0%, n = 20 vs 0.2%, n = 1, P < 0.001) in the infective group compared to the noninfective group. Both subgroups (systemic vs local infection) were balanced for demographics. All-cause major complication including deaths was significantly higher (9.1%, n = 15 vs 3.2%, n = 11, P = 0.008) as well as all-cause 30-day mortality (7.9%, n  = 13 vs 2.1%, n = 7, P = 0.003) in the systemic infection subgroup compared to the local infection subgroup. CONCLUSION: Patients undergoing TLE for infective indications are at greater risk of 30-day all-cause mortality compared to noninfective patients. Patients undergoing TLE for systemic infective indications are at greater risk of 30-day all-cause mortality compared to patients with local infection. Renal impairment, systemic infection, and elevated preprocedure C-reactive protein are independent predictors of 30-day all-cause mortality in patients undergoing TLE for an infective indication.

RESUMO

AIMS: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) may be necessary due to system infection/erosion or lead malfunction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) patients undergoing TLE may be at greater risk due to increased comorbidities. We examined whether patients with CRT systems undergoing TLE had more comorbidities and higher 30-day mortality than those with non-CRT devices. METHODS AND RESULTS: All TLEs between October 2000 and December 2016 were prospectively collected. During this period 925 TLEs occurred (CRT group 231, non-CRT group 694). Cardiac resynchronization therapy patients were older (68.1 ± 10.8 years vs. 64.3 ± 16.1 years, P = 0.024); more likely male (85.7% vs. 69%, P < 0.001); had lower mean left ventricular ejection fraction (34.1 ± 12.7% vs. 48.3 ± 12.9%, P < 0.001); had higher prevalence of renal impairment (33.8% vs. 13.7%, P < 0.001) and were more likely to have ≥2 comorbidities (84% vs. 40.1%, P < 0.001). Mean lead dwell time was lower in the CRT group (5.6 ± 5.5 years vs. 7.6 ± 7.1 years, P = 0.002). There was no significant difference in all-cause 30-day mortality rates between CRT (3.0%, n = 7) and non-CRT patients (2.0%, n = 14) (P = 0.443). The majority of deaths in both groups were due to sepsis. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed age, renal impairment and sepsis were associated with increased risk of 30-day mortality. Transvenous lead extraction of a CRT system did not predict 30-day mortality. CONCLUSION: Transvenous lead extraction in CRT patients was not associated with increased 30-day mortality when compared with non-CRT patients. Age, renal impairment and sepsis were independent predictors of 30-day mortality. Sepsis was the main cause of 30-day mortality.

RESUMO

Bradycardia, atrial stretch and dilatation, autonomic nervous system disorders, and the presence of triggers such as atrial premature contractions, are factors which predispose a person to paroxysmal AF. Atrial pacing not only eliminates bradycardia but also prevents atrial premature contractions and dispersion of refractoriness, which are a substrate for atrial fibrillation. As the prolonged duration of atrial activation during pacing, especially from locations changing the physiological pattern of this activation (right atrium lateral wall, right atrium appendage), negatively influences both a mechanical and an electrical function of the atria, the atrial pacing site affects an atrial arrhythmogenesis. A conventional atrial lead location in the right atrium appendage causes non-physiological activation propagation, resulting in a prolongation of the activation time of both atria. This location is optimal according to a passive fixation of the atrial lead but the available contemporary active fixation leads could potentially be located in any area of the atrium. There is growing evidence of the benefit of pacing, imitating the physiological propagation of impulses within the atria. It seems that the Bachmann's bundle pacing is the best pacing site within the atria, not only positively influencing the atrial mechanical function but also best fulfilling the so-called atrial resynchronization function, in particular in patients with interatrial conduction delay. It can be effectively achieved using only one atrial electrode, and the slight shortening of atrioventricular conduction provides an additional benefit of this atrial pacing site.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patients treated for sick sinus syndrome may have interatrial conduction disorder leading to atrial fibrillation. OBJECTIVES: This study was aimed to assess the influence of the atrial pacing site on interatrial and atrioventricular conduction as well as the percentage of ventricular pacing in patients with sick sinus syndrome implanted with atrioventricular pacemaker. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study population: 96 patients (58 females, 38 males) aged 74.1 ± 11.8 years were divided in two groups: Group 1 (n = 44) with right atrial appendage pacing and group 2 (n = 52) with Bachmann's area pacing. We assessed the differences in atrioventricular conduction in sinus rhythm and atrial 60 and 90 bpm pacing, P-wave duration and percentage of ventricular pacing. RESULTS: No differences in baseline P-wave duration in sinus rhythm between the groups (102.4 ± 17 ms vs. 104.1 ± 26 ms, p = ns.) were noted. Atrial pacing 60 bpm resulted in longer P-wave in group 1 vs. group 2 (138.3 ± 21 vs. 106.1 ± 15 ms, p < 0.01). The differences between atrioventricular conduction time during sinus rhythm and atrial pacing at 60 and 90 bpm were significantly longer in patients with right atrial appendage vs. Bachmann's pacing (44.1 ± 17 vs. 9.2 ± 7 ms p < 0.01 and 69.2 ± 31 vs. 21.4 ± 12 ms p < 0.05, respectively). The percentage of ventricular pacing was higher in group 1 (21 vs. 4%, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Bachmann's bundle pacing decreases interatrial and atrioventricular conduction delay. Moreover, the frequency-dependent atrioventricular conduction lengthening is much less pronounced during Bachmann's bundle pacing. Right atrial appendage pacing in sick sinus syndrome patients promotes a higher percentage of ventricular pacing.

RESUMO

The aim of presented work is analysis of the inverted papilloma cases treated by endoscopic surgery between years 2006 and 2008. Within this period there were 180 surgeries, out of which 11 patients were diagnosed with papilloma inversum in the histopatological test of irradiated tissue. Symptoms reported by the patients, tumor loci, scope of the surgery and its efficiency are described and analyzed. The arguments supporting endoscopic surgery as a treatment modality for inverted papilloma are presented.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTIONS: The authors take up difficult problem of diagnostic and therapy of otogenic brain abscess. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The authors present case of 59-year-old female patient suffering from acute otitis media, with intracranial abscess. Cerebral abscess is one of rare occurring complications of acute otitis. This paper present symptoms, diagnostic process and treatment results, with underlining CT imaging importance for diagnosis and monitoring of the treatment effectiveness. The patient was treated with radical ear operation and many weeks lasting antibiotic therapy. The patient was under outpatient laryngological, neurological and haematological observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Otogenic intracranial complications are still life threating diseases. Complication risk needs fast diagnosis and years-lasting observation, especially in patients with immunological disorders. Immediately performed radical ear operation and advanced antibiotic therapy give a chance for complete cure. Modern imaging of intracranial structures (CT, MR) allow for establishing of diagnosis and makes treatment effects control easier.
