1 Extraction of a CardioFix neurostimulator with concomitant laser-assisted lead and intracardiac cardiac defibrillator extraction due to Staphylococcus aureus pocket infection  Shrinivas Hebsur, MD, Travis Pollema, DO, Ulrika Birgersdotter-Green, MD, Victor Pretorius, MD  HeartRhythm Case Reports  Volume 2, Issue 3, Pages (May 2016) DOI: /j.hrcr Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 A: Posteroanterior chest radiograph image of dual-chamber automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (AICD) (device on the left side) and vagal nerve stimulator on the right side. Note the cuff of the vagal nerve stimulator positioned on the right cervical area. B: Infection and erosion of the AICD pocket with purulent discharge.

3 Figure 2 A: Surgical picture of vagal nerve stimulator cuff on the vagus nerve. B: Once the cuff was removed, the vagus nerve was left without any significant damage. C: Both the pulse generator and the nerve stimulator cuff. D: Inspection of the vagal nerve cuff showed no significant adhesions or damage.
