Cerebral embolism due to a retained pacemaker lead: a case report.

A Böhm¹, F Bányai, K Komáromy, A Pintér, I Préda.

Abstract

There are only a few reported cases of a pacemaker lead migrating inadvertently into the left atrium or ventricle. An unusual complication of unremoved, unwanted pacemaker lead is presented. The free tip of the lead caused cerebral embolism after perforating the interatrial septum.
