Infection is a clinically relevant complication associated with intracardiac devices. Atypical mycobacteria, particularly have been increasingly implicated in cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections. We present a case of CIED infection in a patient with ischaemic cardiomyopathy occurring approximately 3 weeks after insertion. The recognition and adequate treatment, including device removal, tissue sampling and the determination of antimicrobial sensitivities, are essential in the proper management of these patients.
感染是与心内装置相关的具有临床意义的并发症。非典型分枝杆菌，尤其是[此处原文缺失具体内容]，越来越多地与心血管植入式电子装置（CIED）感染有关。我们报告一例缺血性心肌病患者在植入CIED约3周后发生感染的病例。对这些患者进行恰当管理时，识别并进行充分治疗，包括移除装置、组织取样及确定抗菌药物敏感性至关重要。
