BACKGROUND: Patients with a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED)-induced tricuspid regurgitation (TR) have an increased mortality and morbidity. However, the impact of CIED-lead extraction and its indications are not well-defined.
CASE SUMMARY: A 69-year-old woman presented with recurrent hospital admissions for right heart failure refractory to medical therapy, on the background of a single-chamber permanent pacemaker (Biotronik) implanted 6 years ago for tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome. Transoesophageal echocardiography identified severe TR which was predominantly CIED-induced from a lead impingement of the posterior tricuspid valve (TV) leaflet preventing adequate leaflet coaptation. This had progressed to cause a degree of secondary functional TR. The patient underwent pacing lead extraction followed by epicardial lead placement via minithoracotomy, with significant symptomatic and echographic improvement of TR.
DISCUSSION: CIED-induced TR from a lead impingement of TV leaflets carries the highest risk of TR and its consequences. This case illustrates the significance of the relationship between CIED-leads and the TV, which impacts management strategy. We recommend a mechanistic approach and incorporating CIED-lead interaction with the TV apparatus as the underlying principle in developing future management guidelines for CIED-induced TR.
