Abstract

Twiddler's syndrome is classically described as withdrawal of pacing or defibrillator leads from their position in the heart as a result of arm motion or manipulation of the pulse generator site. Reverse Twiddler's syndrome is now reported as advancement of the leads into the heart by a similar repetitive motion but opposite in direction.
