A lead extraction procedure commenced to remove a right atrial lead (model 7122q) due to being a redundant, non functional lead.A right ventricular (rv) and a functional right atrial (ra) lead were also present within the patient but were not targeted for extraction.A spectranetics lead locking device was inserted into the lead to provide traction.It was reported that progress stalled within the vasculature during the procedure, so the physician chose to stop the extraction attempt.The physician attempted to unlock the lld from the lead but was unsuccessful.The ra lead, with the lld present within the lead, was cut, capped, and remained within the patient.
