Abstrakt: Background: Rotational cutting tools are increasingly used in transvenous lead extraction. There are limited data on their safety and efficacy, particularly when used adjunctively for stalled progression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utilization, safety, and effectiveness of mechanical rotational cutting tools for transvenous lead extraction.
Methods: Patients undergoing transvenous lead extraction at a single tertiary center (April 2015 to January 2021, n=586) were included in this retrospective analysis. The study characterized the 251 patients (42.8%) whose cases involved the TightRail mechanical cutting tool.
Results: Among 251 patients, 526 leads were extracted and TightRail was used for 70.5%. The TightRail was used adjunctively with the laser for 65.2% of leads, 97.8% of the time as the second tool after stalled progression. Using a multivariable logistic regression model, we found that active-fixation leads (odds ratio, 2.78 [95% CI, 1.62-4.78]; P =0.0002), dual-coil leads (odds ratio, 3.39 [95% CI, 1.87-6.16]; P<0 .0001), and lead dwell time (odds ratio, 1.16 [95% CI for 1-year increase, 1.11-1.21]; P<0 .0001) were factors independently associated with adjunctive TightRail use. Stalled progression requiring TightRail occurred most often in the innominate vein and superior vena cava (59.3%). The clinical success rate was 96.8%, and the rate of major adverse events was 2.8%. Only 1 major adverse event was observed during TightRail use.
Conclusions: Rotational cutting with TightRail was used in 42.8% of transvenous lead extractions, predominantly in an adjunctive manner after stalled laser progression in the innominate vein and superior vena cava, and more frequently for dual-coil and leads with longer dwell times. Adjunctive TightRail use carries a low risk of major complications.
