This complaint is from a literature source.The following literature cite has been reviewed: dilling-boer d, nof e, beinaert r, wakili r, heidbuchel h, koopman p, schurmans j, phlips t, didenko m, vijgen j.Damage to the left descending coronary artery due to radiofrequency ablation in the right ventricular outflow tract: clinical case series and anatomical considerations.J cardiovasc electrophysiol.2023 feb;34(2):468-477.Doi: 10.1111/jce.15816.Epub 2023 jan 19.Pmid: 36651349.Objective/methods/study data: the purpose of this paper was to highlight the importance of the anatomy of the right ventricular outflow tract (rvot) and the proximity of the mid segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery (lad) to the rvot in the setting of ablation of ventricular arrhythmias in the rvotauthors present a group of five patients from three centers between 2014 and 2017, who experienced occlusion/damage of the mid portion of the lad due to radiofrequency ablation of ventricular ectopy or ventricular tachycardia from the rvot and discuss the anatomical correlations predisposing to coronary damage in this region.All patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting, four of them immediately during the same procedure and one 3 days later because of lack of signs and symptoms of acute coronary occlusion.Lot, model and catalog number are not available, but the suspected biosense device possibly associated with reported adverse events: smart touch ablation catheter.Biosense webster devices that were also used in this study: carto system.Non-biosense webster devices that were also used in this study: n/a.Adverse event(s) and provided interventions possibly associated with a unknown smart touch bidirectional.Patient #1 43yo male experienced occlusion lad2 (arterial spasm) demonstrated by elevated readings (electrocardiogram st segment elevation) treated by stenting (surgical intervention).Patient #2 39yo female experienced occlusion lad2 (arterial spasm) demonstrated by elevated readings (electrocardiogram st segment elevation) treated by stenting (surgical intervention) with additional device phenomenon noted (steam pop).Patient #3 58yo male experienced 50%¿70% lad2 stenosis (soft tissue injury) noted as not a spasm demonstrated by elevated readings (electrocardiogram st segment elevation) treated by stenting(surgical intervention).Patient #4 65yo female experienced occlusion lad2 (arterial spasm) and reported chest (pain) demonstrated by elevated readings (electrocardiogram st segment elevation) treated by stenting (surgical intervention).Patient #5 36yo female experienced occlusion lad2 (arterial spasm) and reported chest (pain)demonstrated by elevated readings (electrocardiogram st segment elevation) treated by stenting (surgical intervention).
