Subclavian venous obstruction is a common complication after cardiac device placement. Patients typically remain asymptomatic but at times may present with acute symptoms due to thrombus formation immediately after device placement or years later, due to chronic obstruction, with pain and swelling. Various techniques have been attempted to resolve symptoms in patients with chronic lead-related subclavian obstruction but are associated with a high recurrence of restenosis. Drug coated balloons (DCB) have been used subsequently after pre-dilation with high-pressure balloons, of the stenosed region, in patients with arteriovenous fistula obstruction, and have shown promising results. We discuss the utilization of DCB in our patient with chronic subclavian obstruction due to a permanent pacemaker lead.
