{Abstract}: An 8-year-old girl with a history of single-chamber epicardial pacemaker during infancy and cardiac resynchronization therapy with a His bundle pacing lead implantation six months earlier, presented with congenital complete heart block. At the follow-up visit, we found atrial pacing lead protrusion with probable insulation in the computed tomography scan. We have shown late pacemaker lead perforation management under fluoroscopic guidance in a pediatric patient.
UNASSIGNED: A serious complication associated with cardiac implantable electronic devices is lead perforation. In the pediatric age group, limited data exist on this complication and its challenging management.We present a case of atrial pacing lead protrusion in an 8-year-old girl. The lead was extracted under fluoroscopic guidance without any complications.
