DiscussionAllergic reactions to pacemaker generators and lead components have been reported but remain a rare cause of pacemaker pocket complication. 2, 3 Allergies have been described to the various components of pacemaker generators and leads, more commonly including but not limited to titanium, nickel, silicone, and polyurethane. 1 The typical presentation includes cutaneous eruptions, erythema, pain, or swelling at the site of implantation, not dissimilar from features of pocket infection; however, in the setting of an isolated allergic response, infectious symptoms such as leukocytosis, fever, and bacteremia are notably absent. 4
