ABSTRACT

Cabos-eletrodos de cardiodesfibriladores implantáveis sofrem mais complicações e falhas que os demarcapassos. Relata-se o caso de paciente portadora de cardiodesfibrilador dependente de estimulação cardíacaartificial, que passou a apresentar sintomas de pré-síncope. Durante a investigação, apresentava eletrocardiogramacom pausas e a telemetria em repouso era aparentemente normal. Optou-se pela abordagem cirúrgica diagnóstica,sendo observada lesão do isolante do cabo-eletrodo ventricular. Com a substituição do cabo-eletrodo ventricular,houve melhora imediata dos sintomas.


Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads have more complications and failures than the pacemakers.We report a case of a patient with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator dependent on cardiac pacing, who beganto show pre-syncope symptoms. During investigation, the electrocardiogram presented with pauses and telemetrywas apparently normal at rest. We chose to use a diagnostic surgical approach and observed fracture of theventricular lead isolation. There was immediate improvement of symptoms after ventricular lead replacement.
