Successful management of late right ventricular perforation after pacemaker implantation
Complications of pacemaker implantation include myocardial perforation, venous thrombosis, vegetations of the tricuspid valve or pacing lead, and tricuspid regurgitation. We report a patient presenting with a case of delayed ventricular lead perforation through the right ventricle. The lead was uneventfully extracted under transesophageal echocardiographic observation in the operating room with...
متن کاملTale of a Wandering Lead: Late Atrial Lead Perforation into Right Lung following Pacemaker Implantation
Cardiac perforation by a pacemaker lead is a rare complication of pacemaker implantation. Presentation can vary from chest pain and shortness of breath to the patient being completely asymptomatic. Diagnosis is usually made by high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan of the chest. Electrocardiograph (EKG) usually shows the absence of a paced rhythm, but it doesn't provide a definitive di...
متن کاملLate complications following permanent pacemaker implantation or elective unit replacement.
OBJECTIVE To determine the rate of late complications following first implantation or elective unit replacement of a permanent pacemaker system. DESIGN Analysis of pacemaker data and complications prospectively acquired on a computerised database. Complications were studied over an 11 year period from January 1984 to December 1994. SETTING Tertiary referral cardiothoracic centre. PATIENTS...
متن کاملIatrogenic brachiocephalic vein perforation during pacemaker implantation.
To cite: Nakabayashi K. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2015-209369 DESCRIPTION An 82-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease received a pacemaker implantation because of his advanced atrioventricular block. We smoothly inserted two sheaths by extrathoracic puncture into the left subclavian region. Mild resistance appeared at the p...
متن کاملLate rising right ventricular pacing lead threshold four yearsafter implantation of a dual chamber pacemaker
Late rising in pacing threshold is an uncommon complication of permanent pacing. Treatment with high dose systemic steroid could spare the patient another procedure. We report a case of late rising pacing threshold that responded to high dose systemic steroid which lowered the pacing threshold to one volt, then rose again to around 2 volts.
