Graphical abstract
Highlights • PPM/ICD-related TR has relevant clinical and prognostic impact. • LPs are an alternative to avoid lead-mediated complications. • Unexpectedly, LP can still cause significant degrees of TR. • TR after LP implantation likely results from subvalvular apparatus interaction. • Little is known about risk factors and management strategies for LP-induced TR.
