Right atrial perforation after an endocardial screw-in atrial lead implantation
A 24-year-old female underwent implantation of a right-sided dual chamber permanent pacemaker for cardioinhibitory syncope with active fixation atrial lead. Five days after the procedure, the patient developed pleuritic chest pain and difficulty in breathing. Minimal pericardial effusion and right h...
