May support TEE-guided extraction with surgical backup for delayed RV lead perforation; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Case Report (n=1)
Delayed right ventricular pacemaker lead perforation can be safely managed via extraction under transesophageal echocardiographic guidance with surgical backup.
Beiras-Fernandez (2010) conducted a case report in Delayed ventricular lead perforation after pacemaker implantation (n=1). Lead extraction under transesophageal echocardiographic observation with cardiac surgery backup was evaluated on Successful extraction. Delayed right ventricular pacemaker lead perforation was uneventfully extracted under transesophageal echocardiographic observation in the operating room with cardiac surgery backup.
