Calls for cautious lead extraction decisions; leaves open validation of optimal risk-reduction strategies.
Transvenous lead extraction is the preferred technique for removing problematic leads, but due to high risks, careful consideration of strategies and indicators is required.
Sapelnikov et al. (2019) conducted a review in Cardiac implantable device complications. Transvenous lead extraction was evaluated. Transvenous lead extraction is the preferred technique for removing problematic cardiac implantable device leads, though the procedure remains associated with high risks that require careful strategy.
