First-in-Human Surgical Extravascular-ICD Implantation
We present the first worldwide case of a hybrid surgical-percutaneous procedure involving transvenous lead extraction, concomitant tricuspid valve repair, implantation of an atrioventricular (AV) leadless pacemaker, and extravascular implantable cardioverter-defibrillator placement with suturing of the defibrillation lead to the heart wall. Multiple interventions were necessary as a result of active endocarditis, congenital complete AV block, and ventricular arrhythmia secondary prevention.
