Out of 11,000 cardiac catheterizations in adult patients, perforation of the heart occurred in four cases (0.036%). Left atrial wall perforation by an NIH catheter occurred in one patient without sequelae. In three patients, right ventricular perforation by a Zucker-type catheter was observed, causing pericardial tamponade. This observation may discourage angiographers from the routine use of this type of catheter.
在11000例成年患者的心脏导管插入术中,发生心脏穿孔4例(0.036%)。1例患者出现NIH导管致左心房壁穿孔,无后遗症。观察到3例患者出现Zucker型导管致右心室穿孔,引起心包填塞。这一观察结果可能会使血管造影师不再常规使用此类导管。
