A rare case of CardioMEMS™ sensor migration.

The CardioMEMS™ system remotely monitors changes in pulmonary artery pressures, which allows for early detection of heart failure worsening. It is a safe and reliable invasive monitoring system. We report a case in which there was a late migration of the device at 6 months of follow-up to the contralateral pulmonary artery. The mechanisms, consequences, and management of device migration are discussed. To our knowledge, there are very few published data on late sensor migration.
