抄録

Eleven cases of permanent pacemaker infection were observed in 439 cases of permanent pacemaker implantation. The mean follow up period was 4.4 years (1949 patient years). Among the eleven cases with infected pacemakers, nine cases were seen before 1981, and they made use of the older types of pacemakers of large size. In recent years, the number of infected of pacemaker decreased by use of generators of smaller size. In most cases, infection was controlled by chang-ing the generator and its location, and by removal of the electrode by traction. There were two cases whose infection developed to septicemia. In one case, electrode was taken out from the right atrium through a small incision in closed method. The other case was successfully treated by removal of the infected electrode under cardiopulmonary bypass. Open heart surgery may be necessary in case of septicemia due to infected pacemaker because of recent use of tined lead.
