- Abstract
Indeed, an improper or extensive undermining in a superficial plane can harm the dermal plexus (the main blood supply to the skin) causing acute tissue ischemia and necrosis [[1]]. One week later, just lateral to the device pocket, the patient noted an ulcerative lesion of the skin increasing in size during the following days. Graph We present the uncommon case of an implantable loop recorder replacement complicated by tissue ischemic damage in a woman aged 84 with diabetes, hypertension, and permanent atrial fibrillation.
