Does every lead dislodgement require repositioning?
<ns3:p>Lead dislodgements are still a serious problem, despite the progress in lead structure. There are still no clear guidelines for managing such cases. We present a case of a 70-year-old woman with HFrEF and transient, complete atrioventricular block with implanted CRT-D. During follow-up, a LV lead dislodgement in the area of the device pocket was observed. Conservative treatment was chosen. In further follow-up, no complications were noted.</ns3:p>
