Cardiac perforation by a transvenous lead is an uncommon but serious complication. We herein present a case of very late perforation of a Riata implantable cardioverter-defibrillator lead, which occurred 8 years after implantation. The patient was successfully treated with percutaneous lead extraction using an excimer laser. Lead perforation should be considered, even after years from implantation.
经静脉导线导致的心脏穿孔是一种罕见但严重的并发症。我们在此报告一例Riata植入式心脏复律除颤器导线非常晚期的穿孔病例,该穿孔发生在植入8年后。患者通过使用准分子激光经皮导线拔除术成功治疗。即使在植入数年之后,也应考虑导线穿孔的可能性。
