Figure 1 Extraction of a lead from a 91-year-old female cadaver. A: A fluoroscopic view of the cardiac silhouette can be seen with the endoscope, lead, and extraction sheath in the right atrium. B: The Spectranetics TightRail Rotating Dilator Sheath is used to free the lead tip from the tissue that has adhered at the point of lead fixation.
