Abstract

Intracardiac lead fracture or free-wall perforation is a rare complication of implantable defibrillators. Complete disconnection of the fractured electrode has not been reported yet. Here, we report a case of lead fracture/ disconnection and free-wall perforation, which occurred consecutively in a patient.
