Inadvertent temporary transvenous pacing of the left ventricle: an underreported complication—a case report

Early detection and management of lead malposition remain critical to minimizing complications. Management strategies for inadvertent lead malposition (ILM) depend on duration of implantation, clinical presentation, and associated risks. This case highlights importance of recognizing this high-risk complication, preventive strategies, and evidence-based management. While existing data primarily focus on ILM in permanent devices, further research is needed to elucidate incidence, predictors, and outcomes of ILM in TTVP, particularly in resource-limited settings.
