Abstract Background Pulmonary artery catheter insertion is a routine practice in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. However, pulmonary artery catheter insertion is associated with numerous complications that can be devastating to the patient. Incorrect placement is an overlooked complication with few case reports to date. Case presentation An 18-year-old male patient underwent elective mitral valve replacement due to severe mitral valve regurgitation. The patient had a history of synovial sarcoma, and Hickman catheter had been inserted in the right internal jugular vein for systemic chemotherapy. We made multiple attempts to position the pulmonary artery catheter in the correct position but failed. A chest radiography revealed that the pulmonary artery catheter was bent and pointed in the cephalad direction. Removal of the pulmonary artery catheter was successful, and the patient was discharged 10 days after the surgery without complications. Conclusions To prevent misplacement of the PAC, clinicians should be aware of multiple risk factors in difficult PAC placement, and be prepared to utilize adjunctive methods, such as TEE and fluoroscopy.

Double Orifice

Background: The incidence of congenital mitral valve disease is 0.4%; Double Orifice Mitral Valve (DOMV) and Parachute Mitral Valve (PMV) are two morphologic pathologies that may result in mitral valve dysfunction. The objectives of this study are 1) To describe valve function and progression and 2) To define factors contributing to disease progression. Methods: Retrospective database review. Fyler codes for DOMV, PMV and text search was performed. Echocardiographic images, echo reports, and chart review were used to identify mitral regurgitation (MR), mitral stenosis (MS), morphology, and associated lesions. Results: 39 patients with DOMV and 76 patients with PMV were identified. In the DOMV cohort, 51% were male, median age at diagnosis was 0.17 years (IQR 0.01, 3.88); median follow-up of 5.92 years (IQR 0.46, 10.22). In the PMV cohort, 44% were male, median age at diagnosis at was 0.01 years (IQR 0, 0.34); median follow-up of 2.56 years (IQR 0.25, 9.55). 41% of DOMV and 23% of patients with PMV had normal valve function at initial visit. DOMV was associated with MR (p=0.04), and PMV with MS (p<0.0001). 23% of patients in the PMV cohort had progressive MS compared to 5% of patients in the DOMV cohort (p<0.0001). There was no significant difference in MR progression between both groups (p=0.02). Papillary muscle (PM) morphology was evaluated in 37 (excluding canals) of 76 patients in the PMV cohort. 5 had true PMV (single PM), 32 had variant PMV with two PM groups of which 62.5% had dominant posterior medial PM. 67% of those with posterior medial PM dominance had progressive MS irrespective of association with Shone’s complex. The anterolateral PM muscle group dominant PMV were not associated with Shone’s complex and progressive MS. Conclusion: DOMV are more likely to have MR while PMV are more likely to have MS. DOMV has non progressive MR and MS. Posterior medial PM dominance in PMV is more likely to have progressive MS.

Axillary Web Syndrome

The purpose of this review is to define axillary web syndrome (AWS) and describe its diagnosis and management. The following databases were searched through July 2017: PubMed, EMBASE (OvidSP), Cumulative Index for Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Search terms included ‘axillary web syndrome', ‘axillary cording', and ‘lymphatic cording'. 49 articles were identified; 8 did not relate to breast cancer, and 3 were not in English. Of the remaining articles, the majority were case reports, case series, or descriptive reviews. 2 systematic reviews were located as well as 1 randomized trial, 6 prospective cohort studies, and 2 retrospective cohort studies. Although a common sequela after axillary surgery for breast cancer staging, AWS has been poorly described in the medical literature as to the underlying pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management. Interventions range from patient education and simple reassurance that the syndrome will resolve spontaneously to active physical or manual therapies to maintain upper extremity range-of-motion, especially adequate motion for undergoing radiation therapy. Oncologists, breast surgeons, family physicians, and oncology nurse practitioners that work with patients with breast cancer should educate them about this prevalent complication and inform them preoperatively about what to anticipate.

Children present with multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C), a post-infectious syndrome presenting a few weeks following an acute SARS CoV-2 infection. A few case reports of neonates presenting with a similar syndrome following maternal infection have been reported. This article summarizes the current literature and outlines the controversies surrounding the diagnosis and management of MIS-C in neonates (MIS-N).
