Abstract:
Right ventriculography is a necessary step for implantation of leadless pacemaker and is considered a safe procedure. However, an inappropriate manipulation of the guidewire can lead to serious complications. We present a case where the guide-wire was entrapped in the tricuspid valve, and its successful extraction using a laser sheath. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
