| Popis: |
Trauma to the patient with an implanted cardiac pacemaker can result in serious damage to the device. We have described a case in which the lead was fractured after accidental electric shock. Recognition that trauma is a possible cause of pacemaker malfunction is critical to proper evaluation and prompt treatment of this potentially lethal complication. |
