We treated a 62-year-old male who had previously undergone a mitral valve plasty and aorto-coronary bypass. One year after the operation, he underwent pacemaker implantation for atrial fibrillation. Two months following implantation, the pacemaker generator was exposed due to a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection. We selected a new catheter route from the right saphenous vein, and implanted a generator under the fascia of the external oblique abdominal muscle. Thereafter, the pacemaker is functioning without trouble and there is no evidence of infection.
