dc.description.abstractExtraction of cardiac implantable electrical devices (CIED) is becoming an increasing necessity. Infection is among the most frequent and serious complications associated with the surge of CIED implants. We describe the extraction of an infected cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator (CRT-D) in a patient with a tunneled implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) lead implanted from the right jugular vein.
