Portuguese term or phrase: ECT
Tamponamento iatrogenico em contexto de implantação de ECT ventriculo esquero usando a technica de Snare.

None of the combinations I have tried yields anything that makes sense. NOT electroconvulsive therapy.

Thanks!

English translation:left ventricular lead
Explanation:
Given the use of "snare technique", I am quite sure this text refers to pacemaker/ICD placement. If so, this is it.

Teresa and Ana's answers are absolutely correct—I believe you may have entered the question in reverse pair order :)

Introdução:
O adequado posicionamento do electrocateter ventricular esquerdo (ECT-VE) é crucial para o sucesso da terapêutica de ressincronização cardíaca (TRC). A anatomia venosa do seio coronário (SC) impõe frequentemente dificuldades técnicas acrescidas ao procedimento.
