When dislodged stents remain on the coronary wire, the wire can be snared outside of the body (presnaring), and the snare loop advanced over the wire into the body to retrieve the stent. Presnaring may be a valuable technique to retrieve dislodged coronary stents when the stent remains on the coronary wire, as demonstrated in the 2 patients described.

Leadless pacemakers (LPMs) offer an alternative for patients with challenging venous access or device infection history. Management of LPM battery depletion in frail patients presents unique challenges. We present the case of an 81-year-old frail woman with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and complete heart block, previously treated with percutaneous transseptal myocardial ablation and a transvenous pacemaker, who received an LPM after device extraction for infection.
