Progressive Dyspnea After CABG: Complication of Retained Epicardial Pacing Wires.

George S Horng1, Euan Ashley, Leora Balsam, Bruce Reitz, Roham T Zamanian.   

Abstract

We report a case of progressive dyspnea and recurrent pneumonia after uneventful coronary artery bypass graft surgery caused by migration of retained epicardial pacing wires into the right upper lobe of the lung. Removal of the wires by open thoracotomy resulted in significant improvement in dyspnea and near complete resolution of the bronchiectasis and consolidation.
