In the last years, indications for defibrillators and cardiac resynchronization therapy have expanded enormously; for this reason, and also due to the extension of human life length, the number of patients with implanted cardiac devices have steadily increased. The leads implanted for the functioning of these devices, however, have a limited duration in time and more and more their extraction will be a frequent issue in clinical practice, in order to treat short- and long-term complications, such as infections and failures. Aim of this book is to provide readers with a state-of-the-art on lead extraction techniques. The chapters deal with leads characteristics, indications to lead removal, p...

In this lavishly illustrated atlas, a selection of very difficult cases of arrhythmias is presented, in which correct diagnosis and successful ablation have been guided by the integration of conventional intracavitary signals and electroanatomic mapping. In each case a short introduction, procedure details and outcome, and a brief commentary are given. Throughout, the crucial role of electroanatomic mapping in providing new insights in a field still in evolution is very evident.

A keen observer, prolific writer and propagandist during his stint as the newspaper La Stampa’s special correspondent in Habsburg Vienna, Gayda lent his considerable skills to promote an aggressive foreign policy. No one did more than he to poison relations between the Italian and Yugoslav peoples. His is the story of a respected journalist who chose an ultranationalist path to fascism and international fame. Not uninfluenced by rank careerism and material reward he forsook his roots to embrace the antisemitic “race” laws of 1938 and Italy’s disastrous partnership with Nazi Germany.
Ce numéro de Diplômées nous tient particulièrement à coeur. Il s'agit ici de rendre hommage aux femmes qui explorent l'humanité comme le monde. Elles sont bien plus nombreuses qu'on ne peut le soupçonner. Souvent loin des médias traditionnels, elles passent inaperçues le plus souvent. Ce numéro est consacré à celles d'hier mais aussi d'aujourd'hui. Il s'agit de tracer des portraits, des parcours, mais aussi de découvrir le lien entre ces femmes.
