Abstract
Perforation by permanent pacemaker lead is rare but does occur. Usually perforations happen soon after the procedure, mostly within one year. But rarely, they occur late. We report a case of delayed perforation by passive fixation lead 33 weeks after the implantation in a patient with no comorbidities. The patient remained asymptomatic regarding the perforation except for having the features of pacing failure.Entities:
