This report describes the case of an 8-year-old boy with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who underwent ICD implantation for recurrent syncope. To avoid vascular complications and to minimize the surgical approach in this small child, a nonthoracotomy ICD system was chosen using a single subcutaneous array lead with only one finger, an abdominally placed active can, and epicardial dual chamber pacing and sensing electrodes. During an 8-month follow-up, DFT was confirmed and there were no ventricular tachycardia or complications. It appears to be a safe device for the prevention of sudden cardiac death in infants and small children.
本报告描述了一名8岁肥厚型心肌病(HCM)男孩因反复晕厥接受植入式心律转复除颤器(ICD)植入的病例。为避免血管并发症并尽量减少对这个小孩的手术操作,选择了一种非开胸ICD系统,使用单根皮下阵列电极导线,仅用一根手指操作,将有源除颤电极置于腹部,同时使用心外膜双腔起搏和感知电极。在8个月的随访期间,测定了除颤阈值(DFT),未发生室性心动过速或并发症。该装置似乎是预防婴幼儿心脏性猝死的一种安全设备。
