Abstract
This is the first case report about a patient implanted with a DF4 lead suffering from reel syndrome. The reel syndrome may occur due to a ratchet mechanism where the device generator creates torque on a lead fixed at the fixation sleeve. Theoretically, this is less likely to occur in DF4 connectors due to their higher stiffness.
