[Radiation-induced pacemaker malfunction].

S Frantz1, J Wagner, H Langenfeld.   

Abstract

As the number of implanted pacemakers and the incidence of malignant tumors increases, the probability of radiation-mediated pacemaker dysfunction increases. Radiation can substantially damage pacemaker electronics. We report here a case, with loss of communication after radiation therapy.
