Unique Extraction of a Fractured Pacemaker Lead Adhered to the Spermatic Vein

Transvenous lead extraction has been increasingly recognized as a safe and effective method of lead extraction, but there are only few references for extracting leads migrating outside the heart. We present a successful extraction of a fractured pacemaker lead from the spermatic vein using several a...
