Intraaortic migration of an epicardial pacing wire: percutaneous extraction.
Infrequent but serious complications have been described in association with temporary epicardial pacing wires. We describe the case of an intraaortic migration of an infected retained atrial temporary epicardial pacing wire and the transfemoral percutaneous interventional approach for its extraction.

A case of accidental triggering of an intra-aortic balloon pump during systole is presented. The patient had a cardiac resynchronization therapy device in place preoperatively for heart failure. A temporary epicardial atrial pacing wire was used during separation from cardiopulmonary bypass for rate control. An intra-aortic balloon pump was necessary for separation from bypass.

The safety and efficacy of temporary pericardial pacing wires have been accepted and their use is common after cardiac operations. Complications related to pacing wire removal are unusual but it can be serious and even catastrophic. We report an unusual case of bleeding due the laceration and rent created in the saphenous vein graft wall by the metallic tip of the pacing wire at the time of pac...
