Abstract
The current case describes the successful implantation of a leadless pacemaker in an elderly patient with multiple complexities. The patient had an in situ cardiac pacemaker with a suspected displaced right ventricular lead and was stabilized using temporary pacemaker implantation. The angiogram revealed obstructed subclavian veins; hence, a leadless pacemaker was successfully implanted.
