percutaneous repositioning of dislodged atrial pacing lead
نویسندگان
چکیده
the overall rate of atrial pacing lead dislodgement is estimated to be about 3%. these leads are generally repositioned via a second operation through opening the pacemaker pocket. some operators have introduced percutaneous techniques using snare system or deflectable catheters for this purpose. in this article we present our experience with five cases of percutaneous lead repositioning. three cases were performed using deflectable ablation catheters and in two cases we used a specially designed urologic basket. the procedural success rate was 100% at the beginning but the long term success rate was 60%.

New technique: repositioning of dislodged atrial pacing lead with a specially designed urological basket.
The rate of dislodgement of atrial pacing leads is approximately 3%. To solve this problem, reoperation and repositioning of these leads is one of the solutions. Some operators have reported repositioning these leads with snare systems or deflectable catheters. In this communication, we present a new method using a specially designed urological basket to solve this problem.
متن کاملSuccessful percutaneous repositioning of a dislodged atrial pacemaker lead with a deflectable catheter.
A 67-year-old male patient with ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy underwent implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator with cardiac resynchronization therapy about one month ago. The implantation process was successful and the patient was discharged in good condition. At the routine first month follow-up, pacemaker analysis revealed that there was no atrial pacing and sensing, alth...
متن کاملSpontaneous reattachment of a dislodged atrial lead.
Acute lead dislodgment is a complication that should be managed immediately. Spontaneous reattachment of a dislodged atrial pacing lead has never been reported before. This case report describes a lucky patient whose atrial lead spontaneously gained a new functioning position after dislodgment from its initial implantation site.
متن کاملComplex percutaneous extraction of a 15-year-old atrial lead dislodged into the subclavian vein
We present a case of a 50-year-old patient with DDD pacing failure who underwent atrial lead extraction. The lead was implanted 15 years ago, and 4 months ago it dislodged into the subclavian vein following a fracture. The lead was removed via the femoral vein approach using a Cook Medical device (Byrd Femoral Workstation, Dotter basket) and pigtail catheter.
متن کاملPercutaneous right atrial pacemaker lead repositioning using a regular deflectable ablation catheter
Lead dislocation is one of the most undesired complications of permanent pacemaker implantation. The rate of dislodgement of atrial pacing leads is nearly 3% [1]. Reopening the pacemaker pocket and repositioning the lead is the most commonly used technique for correcting dislocations which occur in the early period after implantation. However, this increases the risk of pocket infection and inc...
متن کاملEffective Percutaneous Repositioning of an Active Fixation ICD Lead
We report a case of effective trans catheter repositioning of an ICD lead that was displaced during a trans venous extraction procedure of another malfunctioning ICD lead. This original technique was effective also in screwing-in the active fixation tip of the lead. Skilled operators could take into account this technique to avoid the re-opening of the device pocket, when dealing with specific ...
