Pacemaker lead extraction saved a severe lead-induced tricuspid regurgitation: a case report
Pacemaker lead-related tricuspid regurgitation introduces negative haemodynamic overload, carrying high risk for the development of heart failure and worse outcome. The present case shows a rapid relief of symptom and improvement of echocardiography findings, indicating the significance of mechanistic approach in the treatment of lead-related tricuspid mechanical interference.
