- Abstract
The article focuses on cases of potential allergic or inflammatory reactions to the TYRX antibacterial envelope used in cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). The cases involve purulent discharge, absence of systemic infection, healthy tissue appearance, and negative cultures. Topics discussed include the prevalence of such reactions, clinical presentations, and the need for differentiation from infection to guide appropriate management.
