Aim: We report our single-center experience with the retrieval and replacement of the chronically implanted Micra transcatheter pacing system (TPS). Material and Methods: We included 6 patients with an implanted the Micra TPSs who subsequently underwent transvenous method of retrieval at our institution. The indication for device retrieval was pacemaker syndrome in two patients, battery depletion in three patients, and need for upgrade to biventricular pacing in one patient. Results: After an implantation duration of 555 ± 373 days, the overall retrieval success rate was 83.3%, 5 of 6 patients. No procedure-related adverse device events occurred. In the single patient with unsuccessful retrieval, intracardiac echocardiography revealed that the Micra TPS was embedded within the cardiac wall and surrounding tissue. After retrieval, four patients received a new Micra TPS. Conclusions: Late retrieval of an implanted Micra TPS was safe and feasible, which indicates the possibility for their safe and elective replacement with a new leadless pacing device.
