Toxic Myocarditis with Brugada Phenocopy in a Case of Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning.

Brugada phenocopy is considered when a Brugada-type ECG pattern is present but with a low likelihood of true Brugada syndrome, as indicated by negative family history, genetic testing, or provocative testing with drugs, or ECG normalization after the removal of precipitants. Brugada phenocopy has been reported due to various causes such as fever and electrolyte imbalance. We describe a 22-year-old man who presented with aluminum phosphide poisoning, resulting in severe metabolic acidosis, myocarditis, and profound myocardial depression.

Peripartum Cardiomyopathy: A Case Series Emphasizing the Significance of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain Imaging.

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) poses diagnostic and management challenges, while left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) provides crucial insights into myocardial function. This case series explores the significance of LV GLS imaging in diagnosing and managing PPCM. Three distinct cases of varying severity highlight the significance of LV-GLS in assessing myocardial function during the peripartum period.

Is it double chambered left ventricle? Unveiling the mirage using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Double chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is an uncommon congenital heart condition typically identified incidentally, with the majority of patients showing no symptoms and experiencing a benign course. It is crucial to differentiate DCLV from other abnormalities like diverticulum or aneurysm, which can have significant clinical implications. Due to the limited available data, our understanding of the natural progression, prognosis, complications, and treatment options for this rare condition is poorly defined.

Single Center 7 Year Experience of Coronary Artery Perforation: Angiographic and Procedural Characteristics, Management and Outcome.

Context: Coronary artery perforation is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It is infrequent complication of PCI.

Aims: The objective of the study is to report the 7-year experience of coronary artery perforation with respect to incidence, clinical and angiographic characteristics, management and outcomes.

A rare Case of "Acute Take Off" of Left Circumflex Artery Successfully Intervened using Dual-Lumen Microcatheter.

"Acute take off" of the left circumflex artery (LCX) is a rare coronary artery variant. Development of coronary artery disease in such a vessel increases technical difficulty and failure rate for percutaneous coronary intervention. We report a rare case of "acute take off" of the LCX with proximal critical stenosis successfully intervened using dual-lumen microcatheter.

Successful percutaneous retrieval of unusually knotted temporary pacemaker lead.

Implantation of temporary pacemaker lead is commonly performed procedure and is usually safe, but can sometimes develop rare and serious complication like intracardiac lead knotting which may require challenging retrieval techniques. We report a case of successful percutaneous retrieval of unusually knotted right internal jugular venous temporary pacing lead via left femoral transvenous approach using snare over a long sheath after cutting the electrode proximally and thus avoiding any surgical intervention.
