One of the basic treatment techniques in cardiac conduction defects is pacemaker implantation. Although they were first used for the purpose of the treatment of bradyarrhythmias in 1958, they have had their current position for being applied to prevent and also to terminate the tachycardias in the course of time. Therefore, the rate of patients with permanent pacemaker in accordance with the increase in their use has been increasing at routine clinical practice recently. As a result, it is important to understand the possible ECG changes in these patients to determine any pathology on time. We are going to report a pacemaker lead dislocation detected with surface ECG change obtained during routine the pacemaker’s functions control in a patient with DDD pacemaker, who did not describe any complaint previously. In this case our aim is to emphasize the importance of 12-lead surface ECG to make diagnosis of pacemaker dysfunctions.
