Some acute complications are known during permanent pacemaker implantation such as pneumothorax, lead perforation, lead dislodgement, and hemorrhage. ST‐segment elevation in electrocardiogram during implantation is rare, but it might indicate critical complication like myocardial ischemia or ventric...
