Abstract:
Although the Needle's Eye Snare (Cook Medical) has been considered useful for lead extraction, serious complications can occur. We presented a case of atrial septal perforation associated with the Needle's Eye Snare. Our case highlights the importance of not persisting with the Needle's Eye Snare to prevent atrial damage.
