Galassi Egle Corrado Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology ABSTRACT Post‐implantation infections of pacemakers or defibrillators represent a serious complication, impacting patient morbidity and mortality. We present a case involving a 75‐year‐old male with multiple comorbidities who developed pocket erosion of a previously implanted biventricular defibrillator, complicated by Staphylococcus haemolyticus infection. Following device extraction and targeted antibiotic therapy, an extravascular implantable cardioverter defibrillator (EV‐ICD; Aurora EV‐ICD) was implanted. The procedure was successfully performed, with a 2‐month follow‐up showing no signs of infection or device displacement. EV‐ICD appears to be a safe and effective alternative for high‐risk patients, minimizing complications associated with vascular access and endocardial lead implantation. 10.1111/pace.70045 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
