Implantation of Active Fixation Leads in Coronary Veins for Left Ventricular Stimulation: Report of Five Cases

Abstract

If only proximal CV pacing sites are available, 4 Fr SelectSecure leads can be safely implanted through a modified Launcher guide catheter, avoiding more invasive implantation techniques. Other than venous stenting or implantation of leads with retractable tines, SelectSecure leads are expected to remain extractable.
