Fractures: Bone Repair

Fractures: Bone Repair

Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Background:

Leadless pacemaker implantation is rising globally.
Reports on leadless pacemaker dislocation and extraction are infrequent.
Complications such as leadless pacemaker tine fracture can occur.

Purpose of the Study:

To report two cases of leadless pacemaker tine fracture and dislocation.
To highlight potential complications associated with leadless pacemaker use.
To emphasize the importance of post-implantation monitoring.

Main Methods:

Case report of an elderly male with leadless pacemaker dislocation to the right pulmonary artery one month post-surgery.
Case report of an elderly female with leadless pacemaker dislocation to the right ventricle nine months post-surgery.
Review of clinical management and outcomes for both cases.

Main Results:

One patient experienced dislocation to the right pulmonary artery, requiring new leadless pacemaker implantation.
The second patient had dislocation to the right ventricle, necessitating leadless pacemaker removal and dual-chamber permanent pacemaker implantation.
Both cases illustrate the potential for leadless pacemaker displacement.

Conclusions:

Leadless pacemaker dislocation, though rare, can occur due to complications like tine fracture.
Regular device programming and monitoring are essential for early detection of abnormalities.
Prompt clinical intervention is necessary to manage leadless pacemaker complications effectively.
