Review outlines the risk factors, diagnosis, and management of CIED lead-induced cardiac perforation.
Why the study?
With increasing CIED implantations, the risk of lead perforation remains a critical concern, making understanding its clinical presentations essential for prevention, recognition, and management.

What are the prevalence, clinical presentations, risk factors, diagnosis, and management strategies for cardiac perforation caused by CIED leads?
This review summarizes the prevalence, clinical presentations, risk factors, diagnosis, and management strategies for cardiac perforation caused by CIED leads.
Alerts clinicians to perforation risks after CIED implantation; leaves open optimal prevention strategies pending prospective data.
The implantation of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) has steadily increased due to an aging population, advancements in diagnostic techniques, and technological improvements. However, the risk of cardiac perforation following lead implantation, though low, remains a critical concern. Understanding the clinical presentations of this complication is essential for effective prevention, recognition, and management. This review explores the prevalence, clinical presentations, risk factors, diagnosis, management strategies, and future perspectives related to cardiac perforation caused by CIED leads.
