Delayed pacemaker erosion due to electrode seal defects.

J D Cohn, R Santhanam, M A Rosenbloom

    The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
    |November 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Pacemaker generator erosion occurred in 7.7% of patients due to inadequate seals, leading to skin erosion and inflammation. Infectious causes were identified in early cases, while later cases showed fibrosis and tissue ingrowth.
