Complications of transvenous lead extraction—focus on tricuspid valve damage: a case report
While pre-procedural TTE and intra-procedural transesophageal echocardiography are commonly used to identify lead-induced tricuspid insufficiency, they often do not clarify the underlying mechanisms or predict potential complications during TLE. To address this issue safely, further research into new imaging techniques is necessary, as some existing methods may not be adequate in certain situations.
