Repetitive inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks due to insulation failure with externalized conductor cables of a Biotronik Linox SD ICD lead.
We report the case of a 54-year-old patient with repetitive inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks due to externalized pace-sense conductor cables of a Biotronik Linox SD 65/16 ICD lead. This case report is one of few in the literature describing inappropriate shocks due to insulation failure with externalization of conductor cables of an ICD lead from the Biotronik L...
متن کاملExternalized Conductor Cables in QuickSite Left Ventricular Pacing Lead and Riata Right Ventricular Lead in a Single Patient: A Common Problem With Silicone Insulation
QuickSite (St Jude Medical, Sylmar, CA, USA) is a silicone and polyurethane-insulated coronary sinus pacing lead. Riata lead (St Jude Medical, Sylmar, CA, USA) is a silicone insulated right ventricular shock lead. Recently, insulation breach of silicone based leads raised a huge concern. Fluoroscopic examination of these two leads in the same patient revealed externalization of these two leads....
متن کاملExternalized conductors and insulation failure in Biotronik defibrillator leads: History repeating or a false alarm?
Conductor externalization and insulation failure are frequent complications with the recalled St. Jude Medical Riata implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) leads. Conductor externalization is a "unique" failure mechanism: Cables externalize through the insulation ("inside-out" abrasion) and appear outside the lead body. Recently, single reports described a similar failure also for Biotron...

“OUTSIDE-IN” ABRASIONS: A NEW PHENOMENA — MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS We may divide abrasions according to mechanism into “outside-in” and “inside-out” abrasions. The “outside-in” abrasions are well known in the pocket as the result of friction between leads or between the lead and the device, as well as in the venous system, with tearing surfaces among leads, first rib, and clavicle. However, ...
