A dual-coil ICD lead and an atrioverter coiled lead implanted in the right ventricle and coronary sinus, respectively, were successfully removed with different techniques. For the ICD lead, we used a 16F laser sheath from the subclavian and for the atrioverter lead a Needle's Eye from the femoral approach.
