BACKGROUND: Cardiac tamponade is the main complication of transseptal catheterization that is necessary for a variety of cardiac interventions and electrophysiology procedures.
METHODS: A retrospective assessment of all consecutive procedures that required transseptal puncture by the same experienced operator (with already >100 previous trans-septal procedures) during the period 2000-2012 was performed. We recorded any puncture-related complications of pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade (acute or delayed).
RESULTS: A total of 393 procedures were retrieved: Group 1 [ablation of left-sided accessory pathways (n = 77), atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia-left septal access (AVNRT) (n = 12), and Inoue balloon mitral valvuloplasty (n = 27)], and Group 2 [atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation procedures: ostial pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) (including RF (n = 76) and cryo-balloon (n = 30)), circumferential PVI (n = 51), and combined procedures (n = 120)]. In total, 5 cases of tamponade were recorded, four of them were acute and one delayed (occurring 1h after the procedure). All tamponade cases occurred only during or after AF ablation procedures (cryo-balloon ablation = 1, circumferential PVI = 2, and combined procedures = 2). In one case emergency atrial repair following median sternotomy was necessary, and in another a surgical drainage through a limited thoracotomy was performed. The other three cases were treated with pericardiocentesis and drainage for 12h. No patient was on uninterrupted oral anticoagulation during the procedure.
CONCLUSIONS: AF ablation is associated with a higher incidence of tamponade compared to other procedures that require transseptal access. Such procedures should only be performed in hospitals with access to emergency surgical support.
