The clinical significance of incidental finding of delayed lead perforation remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of lead perforation as detected by CT in a cohort of patients undergoing transvenous laser lead extraction and characterize the association between finding of incidental lead perforation with periprocedural outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Consecutive patients that underwent chest CT and lead extraction were retrospectively assessed for presence of lead perforation. A total of 143 patients and 348 leads were assessed. The finding of lead perforation was correlated with findings from peri\u2010procedural transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and outcomes of the lead extraction procedure.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Lead perforations (including perforations\u00a0&lt;5\u00a0mm and \u22655\u00a0mm) were detected in 66 (46%) patients and 73 (21%) leads. Lead perforation \u22655\u00a0mm were less common and detected in 13 (9%) of patients and 14 (4%) of leads. There was no significant difference in the rates of peri\u2010procedural death, cardiac avulsion, cardiac tamponade or post\u2010extraction pericardial effusion in patients with and without lead perforation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Incidental delayed lead perforations detected by CT are common and do not correlate with significant TEE findings or adverse peri\u2010procedural outcomes in patients undergoing lead extraction.
