Fig 1 Operative site after resternotomy and (epi)myocardial placement of the ventricular (V) and atrial (A) leads. The leads are additionally secured epicardially with Teflon (DuPont, Wilmington, DE) pledgets to prevent early dislocation. Blue wires are for temporary pacing. Note the heavy epicardial scarring.
