Abstract

Cardiac resynchronization therapy is a promisingtherapeutic option for patients with end-stage heart failure.The preferred method for left ventricular lead implantationis the percutaneous access through the coronary sinus.However, this technique may impose certain technicaldifficulties due to suboptimal lead positioning. In suchcases, a video-assisted thoracoscopic epicardial approachmay be a good alternative. To date, video-assisted leftventricular epicardial lead implantation from two or threeport incisions have been described. Herein, we present thefirst successful left ventricular epicardial lead implantationthrough a simplified single-port video-assisted thoracoscopytechnique in Turkey.

Özet

Kardiyak resenkronizasyon tedavisi, son dönem kalp yetmezliği olan hastalar için umut vadeden bir tedavi seçeneğidir. Sol ventrikül lead implantasyonu için tercih edilen yöntem, koroner sinüsten perkütan erişimin sağlanmasıdır. Ancak, bu teknik lead pozisyonununun optimal olmaması nedeniyle birtakım teknik zorluklara yol açabilir. Bu tür durumlarda, video yardımlı torakoskopik epikardiyal yaklaşım iyi bir alternatif olabilmektedir. Bugüne kadar video yardımlı sol ventrikül epikardiyal lead implantasyonu için iki veya üç port insizyonu kullanıldığı bildirilmiştir. Bu yazıda, Türkiye’de basitleştirilmiş tek port video yardımlı torakoskopik cerrahi tekniği ile uygulanan ilk başarılı sol ventrikül epikardiyal lead implantasyon olgusu sunuldu.
