Unexpected challenging case of coronary sinus lead extraction
An 84-year-old woman implanted with cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator underwent transvenous lead extraction 4 mo after the implant due to pocket infection. Atrial and right ventricular leads were easily extracted, while the attempt to remove the coronary sinus (CS) lead was unsuccessful. A few weeks later a new extraction procedure was performed in our center. A stepwise approach ...

متن کاملsuccessful implantation of coronary sinus lead after balloon angioplasty of a coronary vein stenosis
a 55-year-old man referred for cardiac resynchronization therapy (crt) due to severe heart failure. a severe stenosis in the coronary sinus vein after the posterior branch disallowed the insertion of the lead. nevertheless, the stenosis was dilated and the left ventricle (lv) lead was implanted in the lateral marginal branch.
متن کاملA challenging lead endocarditis.
Pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) lead endocarditis remains a challenging diagnosis in cardiology. Several parameters can be involved in the clinical path leading to the definite diagnosis. Clinical appearance and physical findings, together with transoesophageal echocardiography and serum levels of inflammatory parameters, are necessary in the workup towards the diagnosis....
