Inside-out abrasion and contained conductor cable externalization in a defibrillation lead with asymmetric conductor cable lumen distribution Ernest W. Lau, MD, Michael J.D. Roberts, MD HeartRhythm Case Reports Volume 4, Issue 3, Pages 121-126 (March 2018) DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2018.01.003 Copyright © 2018 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Results of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device interrogation. A: Biventricular (BiV) pacing fell abruptly. B: The number of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) rose abruptly. C: The atrial (A) and left ventricular (LV) channels showed clear signals, but the right ventricular (RV) channel showed discrete perisystolic (just before or after atrial and ventricular electric activation) nonphysiologic noises. Most noise signals were too small to be detected (blue asterisks). If detected, they were counted as PVCs or RV sensed events (RVs) (blue arrows), and caused any closely coupled genuine A and RV events to be blanked out or mislabeled as ventricular fibrillation (VF, red arrows). D: Nonphysiologic noises were also present in the far-field (FF) coil-to-can channel (blue arrows if detected; blue asterisks if not detected), but were more obvious if they occurred before and not after the much larger R waves. E: The pacing thresholds and impedances, sensed P- and R-wave amplitudes, and shock impedance remained stable.

Figure 2 Failed Sprint Quattro Secure lead before, during, and after extraction. A: Pre-extraction chest radiograph. B: Kink in a conductor cable. C: No kink in conductor cables immediately post lead implantation. D: Beginning of extraction. E: The lead broke free. F: Fibrous adhesions were seen only around the proximal end of the shock coil along the entire extracted lead. A conductor cable protruded through a breach in the insulation. Old, dark blood was seen in the lead body, both close to and distant from (red asterisk) the insulation breach. G: Old, dark blood was further away than fresh, lighter blood from the insulation breach and conductor cable protrusion. H: The fibrous adhesions were thicker around the proximal than toward the distal end of the shock coil. i: The breach in the silicone insulation between the shock coil and the polyurethane overlay had ragged edges and was filled with biologic debris and altered blood. The conductor cable protruding through the insulation breach was connected to the ring electrode. The shock coil cable had a kink just proximal to its weld to the coil. The proximal turns of the shock coil were separated and displaced distally.

Figure 3 Structure and defects of the failed Sprint Quattro Secure lead. A: Cross section of the lead. SVC = superior vena cava; RV = right ventricle. B: Diagram of the lead damages. C: The externalized conductor cable loop had been pulled back inside the lead body. The proximal turns of shock coil were displaced distally from their grooves in the medical adhesive. The silicone insulation breach was a broad linear defect (loss of material) under the coil and a narrow irregular tear (ragged edges; little loss of material) between the coil and the polyurethane overlay. D: The ring electrode cable had been removed. The silicone insulation defect under the shock coil was “undermined” (more extensive inside than outside) and tapered toward the lead tip. E: The ring electrode cable segment exposed in the silicone insulation defect under the shock coil had a scaphoid defect with loss of material and linear scratch marks at both ends in its ethylene tetrafluoroethylene coating. F: The exposed metal strands of the conductor cable were flattened and sprinkled with spalls of platinum (bright spots) transferred from the shock coil. The dark materials were biologic debris.
