RESUMEN
A 65-year-old male was suffered complications from an infected pacemaker in the left subclavian region. The generator was removed and its electrode was cut at the vascular entry. A new system was implanted on the other side. Two months later, he suffered from persistent fever which required administration of antibiotics for 2 months. 7 months later, the cut end of the infected electrode was found to have drifted into the right atrium. Its removal was performed to prevent a potential exacerbation of the systemic infection. We were able to pick up an end of the electrode using a basket catheter which was inserted through the right internal jugular vein to extract it. The lead was then successfully removed using a lead removal kit.
