Abstract
A case of a pacing catheter perforation of the interventricular septum is presented here. The entire catheter length was visualized by two-dimensional real-time echocardiography utilizing the subcostal approach; the catheter was seen entering the left ventricle through the high interventricular septum.Keywords
