Facilitation of transvenous lead extraction using site-specific delivery of electrosurgical energy

INTRODUCTION: Excimer laser energy is often required to extract chronically indwelling pacemaker and defibrillator leads from the vasculature and myocardium. This technique can be associated with vascular and right ventricular (RV) injuries. We sought to develop a safer, more effective method by app...
