RESUMEN

The WATCHMAN™ atrial appendage closure device is designed to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who are not suitable candidates for long-term oral anticoagulation therapy. However, the device also carries small risks, including procedural complications such as device migration, embolization, or pericardial effusion. We describe a case of WATCHMAN device migration requiring surgical retrieval.

RESUMEN

The current state of the literature for a bullet embolization to the heart and/or pulmonary vasculature indicates the occurrence is rare but could increase due to the rise in civilian low-kinetic-energy firearm acquisition and use. We present the case of an older teenage male who sustained a gunshot wound to the left flank. The bullet entered the iliac vein, travelled through the heart and lodged in the pulmonary artery. Successful relocation of the bullet to the internal iliac vein was performed by the interventional radiologist. This article highlights the advancement of interventional radiology as a successful non-invasive endovascular technique for bullet embolus removal.

RESUMEN

This case report documents the management of a 66-year old man with atrial fibrillation with recent placement of a WATCHMAN® Flex atrial appendage occlusion device. The patient presented with renal failure, abdominal pain, and difficulty walking 2 months after placement. The WATCHMAN® Flex device was found to have embolized to his abdominal aorta at the level of the renal arteries with associated thrombus. Extensive workup revealed reduced left ventricular cardiac function and decreased renal function, both of which were felt to be potentially reversible with device removal. The patient then underwent retrieval of the device and all associated thrombus via an open retroperitoneal approach. This case demonstrates a potential consequence of implanting devices such as an atrial appendage occlusion device and describes a technique for removal.

RESUMEN

The use of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) devices have gained prominence as an alternative to long-term anticoagulation therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke and high risk of bleeding. While these devices have shown efficacy in reducing stroke risk, there have been reported cases of embolization of the Watchman device. There are very few cases of successful percutaneous retrieval of embolized Watchman devices from the left ventricle (LV), as many of these cases require open heart surgery for safe removal. We are presenting a case of an 80-year-old male whose Watchman device embolized to the LV and was entrapped on the LV papillary muscle that was then successfully retrieved via percutaneous methods, which shows the percutaneous options remain a viable strategy to retrieve LAAO devices from the LV.

RESUMEN

Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a well-established treatment in the management of refractory overactive bladder (OAB), non-obstructive retention, and fecal incontinence. However, the use and management of SNM in pregnant women remains elusive. We present a noteworthy case involving a patient diagnosed with Clara-Fowler syndrome who underwent SNM during the early stages of pregnancy. The sacral neuromodulator remained activated throughout the pregnancy upon patient's request. After vaginal delivery the patient encountered device dysfunction, ultimately attributed to electrode migration. After repositioning of a new electrode in the contralateral sacral root, the patient successfully recovered spontaneous voiding with no post void residual. This case suggests that SNM may not have detrimental effects on pregnancy or fetal development. However, the intricate physiological changes associated with pregnancy and vaginal delivery may contribute to electrode migration, warranting careful consideration in the management of pregnant patients undergoing SNM.

RESUMEN

This report describes the experience of removing migrated gastrointestinal (GI) stents using a gastrostomy (G) access. Four male patients aged 23-62 years (mean, 42 years) had 6 migrated stents removed using an existing (n = 3) or new (n = 1) G access. Removed stents included 5 covered esophageal stents that migrated into the stomach and 1 distal noncovered duodenal stent that migrated into the proximal duodenum. One patient had 2 stents removed during the same session. All stents were removed successfully without adverse events. Techniques used included the folding technique using a wire in 3 stents and forceps in 2 stents. Eversion technique was used in the duodenal stent. The G or gastrojejunostomy tubes were replaced after stent removal and used for enteral feedings. In conclusion, removing migrated GI stents using an existing or new G access was technically successful and safe.

RESUMEN

Coil migration during endovascular embolization is a complication that can result in thromboembolic occlusion leading to potentially large infarcts if not removed. Microsnares are commonly used to remove migrated coils. Current techniques, however, struggle in cases where the microsnare is unable to loop over and secure a free end of the coil. We present a case in which a microsnare combined with a microwire successfully removed a migrated coil in a patient with a bleeding hepatic pseudoaneurysm post-embolization. This technique proved beneficial when traditional methods were insufficient, especially in small vessels or coil packs that cannot be snared. The synergy of the microsnare and microwire technique presents a promising solution for challenging migrated coil retrievals.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Percutaneous endovenous stenting has emerged during the past decade as the primary method of treating symptomatic venous outflow obstruction. A recognized complication of venous stenting is stent migration. The aim of the present systematic review was to identify the number of cases of stent migration in reported studies to recognize the risk factors that might be associated with this complication and the outcomes following migration. METHODS: A review was conducted in accordance with the MOOSE (meta-analyses of observational studies in epidemiology) and PRIMSA (preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis) guidelines and registered in the PROSPERO. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed databases. Key references were searched using specified keywords. All relevant data for the primary procedure and subsequent presentation with stent migration were retrieved. The data were assessed as too low in quality to allow for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Between 1994 and 2020, 31 studies were identified, including 29 case reports and 2 case series, providing data for 54 events of venous stent migration with some data provided regarding the stent used for 47 of the events. The mean age of the 52 patients with stent migration was 50 years (range, 19-88 years) and 30 were men (57.6%). The stents for most of the reported cases were ≤60 mm in length (38 of 46; 82.6%). Only three of the reports were of stents >14 mm in diameter (3 of 47; 3.6%). None of the studies had reported migration of stents >100 mm long. In 85% of the migrated stent events, retrieval was attempted, with 65.2% via an endovascular approach. The immediate outcome was satisfactory for 100% of the reported attempts, whether by an endovascular or open surgical approach. CONCLUSIONS: The findings from our literature review suggest that the risk of migration is rare but might be underreported. Most of reported cases had occurred with shorter and smaller diameter stents. The paucity of reported data and the short-term follow-up provided suggest that more formal data collection would provide a truer reflection of the incidence. However, clear strategies to avoid migration should be followed to prevent this complication from occurring.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: To describe management of anterior migration of a fluocinolone acetonide(FAc) intravitreal implant. METHODS: A retrospective case report. A 61-year-old man with diabetic macular edema and prior vitrectomy had anterior migration of a FAc implant. Anterior segment photos and optical coherence tomography were performed. RESULTS: Approximately 3 months after FAc implant was administered, it was noted to have migrated into the anterior chamber. Vision, intraocular pressure, and optical coherence tomography imaging initially remained stable, and no evidence of detectable corneal edema developed in 30 months of follow-up. However, at 36 months of follow-up, after second FAc implant injection, mild corneal edema developed,suspected to be related to the migrating implants. CONCLUSION: Anterior migration of a FAc implant may lead to less rapid and severe corneal decompensation compared with other steroid implants. Despite this, delayed corneal edema may occur. Careful monitoring of the cornea and intraocular pressure is recommended in cases of anterior FAc migration.

RESUMEN

Resumo O cateter totalmente implantável (CTI) é utilizado na administração da quimioterapia. Em menos de 1% dos casos de complicação, pode ocorrer migração do CTI para quimioterapia para a circulação sistêmica. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever um caso de migração do CTI para a veia hepática. Uma paciente do sexo feminino, de 44 anos de idade, teve diagnóstico de câncer de mama com indicação de quimioterapia neoadjuvante. Realizou-se a implantação de cateter port-a-cath. Durante o procedimento de punção do cateter, houve retorno normal de sangue, e foi realizada infusão de soro fisiológico. Em seguida, houve um aumento de volume no local do port e não retorno de sangue à aspiração. A radiografia de tórax mostrou embolização do cateter em topografia hepática. Retirou-se o cateter pela técnica do laço (sem complicações), e a paciente recebeu alta no dia seguinte. Possíveis alterações no funcionamento do CTI devem chamar atenção da equipe responsável.


Abstract A totally implantable venous access port (TIVAP) is used for chemotherapy administration. Venous port migration to the systemic circulation occurs in less than 1% of complications. The aim of this study is to describe a case of TIVAP migration to the hepatic vein. A 44-year-old female patient with breast cancer was prescribed neoadjuvant chemotherapy. A port-a-cath was surgically implanted for chemotherapy. During the port puncture procedure, blood returned normally when aspirated. When the port was first accessed and flushed with saline solution, swelling was observed at the port site and blood could no longer be aspirated. A chest radiography showed catheter embolization in the region of the hepatic vein. The catheter was retrieved using a snare technique (without complications) and the patient was discharged the next day. The care team should be alert to possible TIIVAP malfunction.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Bullet fragment embolization is a rare but potentially fatal complication of traumatic gunshot injury. Herein, we present a case of a patient who demonstrated migration of a bullet fragment from the lower chest into the left common iliac vein. Continual identification of foreign bodies on trauma imaging is of the utmost importance. Identifying and treating this rare entity can help vascular interventionalists improve patient outcomes. CASE REPORT: Our patient presented to the emergency room after sustaining 2 gunshot wounds to the right axilla. Initial imaging demonstrated 2 bullet fragments: one in the right axilla and another in the lower chest overlying the heart. A subsequent trauma computed tomography was performed 13 minutes later and demonstrated a bullet fragment in the left common iliac vein, which had embolized from the original location in the lower chest. Interventional radiology was consulted to perform foreign body removal. A transcutaneous approach was utilized, and the bullet embolus was removed successfully without complication. CONCLUSION: Bullet fragment embolization is a rare entity with complications ranging from critical limb ischemia to venous thrombosis or obstruction. This case helps to demonstrate the importance of identifying and accounting for bullet fragments in gunshot trauma imaging.

RESUMEN

Although percutaneous nephrolithotomy is generally safe, it has various complications. We present an extremely rare case in which the nephrostomy tube pierced renal parenchyma, proceeded through the right renal vein and inferior vena cava, finally reaching the right atrium. Such a tube misplaced to atrium level was firstly reported, which was safely withdrawn using a 2-step process under fluoroscopic monitoring. We also recommend the tube be marked with different color lines to maintain awareness of the tube length that has passed the peel-away sheath. Such information might help to avoid such complication.
