Histological findings around electrodes in pacemaker and implantable cardioverterdefibrillator patients: comparison of steroideluting and non-steroid-eluting electrodes

Original language description

The aim was to analyse histological findings surrounding the electrodes in pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (PM/ ICD) patients and to compare histology around steroid-eluting and non-steroid ventricular pacing electrodes. In autopsied PM/ICD patients histopathological findings around the electrodes were determined. Seventy patients were studied, PM(58), ICD(12), mean age 75.1+9.3 years. The implantation2death interval was 4.0+3.3 years. Most causes of death were cardiac (PM 52%, ICD 58%). The majority of atrial electrodes were attached to the endocardium and most ventricular electrodes were found in the myocardium. The maximum thickness of the fibrous electrode sheath was greatest for the ICD ventricular electrodes. Some electrodes werecovered with fibrin thrombi and granulation tissue, most frequently in the ICD ventricular electrodes.
