A 61-year-old man with septicemia had four infected pacemaker leads, which were impossible to remove using simple traction method. He received CABG previously, and SVG anastomosed to LAD was patent. Redo median sternotomy had a possibility to make damage to SVG. Total removal of infected pacemaker was performed successfully with cardiopulmonary bypass through right thoracotomy.

D012804	Sick Sinus Syndrome	A condition caused by dysfunctions related to the SINOATRIAL NODE including impulse generation (CARDIAC SINUS ARREST) and impulse conduction (SINOATRIAL EXIT BLOCK). It is characterized by persistent BRADYCARDIA, chronic ATRIAL FIBRILLATION, and failure to resume sinus rhythm following CARDIOVERSION. This syndrome can be congenital or acquired, particularly after surgical correction for heart defects.
