    Abstract:
    The authors report one case of septicemia following the infection of a remaining endocardial electrode lead. From this observation and the literature's data, they are thinking that it is essential to remove the entire pacemaker system (electrode lead and generator) to cure this complication. They remind the different technics used to remove the endocardial leads.
