Abstract:
The rate of dislodgement of atrial pacing leads is approximately 3%. To solve this problem, reoperation and repositioning of these leads is one of the solutions. Some operators have reported repositioning these leads with snare systems or deflectable catheters. In this communication, we present a new method using a specially designed urological basket to solve this problem.
