Abstract :
Reel syndrome occurs due to spontaneous retraction of pacemaker leads, which causes lead dislodgement and severe complications. We reported a case of Reel syndrome with dual-chamber pacemaker inwhich an actively fixated ventricular lead was coiled around the generator and retracted back into the pocket. The tined atrial lead remained in post implantation position.
