1 Simultaneous lead extraction and vacuum-assisted vegetation removal
Ziad F. Issa, MD, FHRS, Nilesh J. Goswami, MD  HeartRhythm Case Reports  Volume 2, Issue 1, Pages (January 2016) DOI: /j.hrcr Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Transesophageal echocardiography showing a large vegetation (arrows) measuring mm attached to the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator right ventricular lead at the level of the tricuspid valve. LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle; RA = right atrium; RV = right ventricle. HeartRhythm Case Reports 2016 2, 17-19DOI: ( /j.hrcr ) Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Fluoroscopy images (anteroposterior view) during simultaneous vegetation removal and lead extraction. A: The AngioVac cannula is positioned at the low right atrium (RA). The EN Snare is used to debulk the vegetation off the right ventricular implantable cardioverter-defibrillator lead (RV), under transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance. B: Once the RV lead tip is freed with countertraction during laser extraction, a 20 mm gooseneck snare is used to “strip” the lead from attached vegetations. C: Lead extraction was completed while AngioVac suction was active. LV = left ventricular lead.

4 Figure 3 A: AngioVac filter filled with pieces of the vegetations suctioned via the AngioVac cannula. B: Vegetation removed from the AngioVac filter. C: The extracted implantable cardioverter-defibrillator right ventricular lead. HeartRhythm Case Reports 2016 2, 17-19DOI: ( /j.hrcr ) Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions
