“…In our opinion, when difficulties are encountered in electrocatheters advancement, the pres-ence of aneurysms can be correctly evaluated by a periprocedural venous angiography, which allows the detection of venous anomalies, facilitates lead placement, and decreases the risk of highly dangerous complications. 9 It could be useful to consider preprocedure hydration in patients who undergo implant procedure in order to minimize risk of contrast nephropathy. In our case this treatment was not given to avoid fluid overload in a decompensated heart failure.…”

Thoracic vein aneurysms are very rare vascular lesions, usually detected as incidental findings. We describe the case of a patient with an advanced atrioventricular block who underwent definitive pacemaker implantation. In order to explain the difficult advancement of a pacemaker lead, vein angiography was performed during the procedure and a large innominate vein aneurysm was observed. Successful lead placement was then performed without further complications. (PACE 2008; 31:627-629)
