Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are widely recognized for their efficacy in reducing the risk of sudden cardiac death in high-risk patients. Nonetheless, there remains significant scope for improving outcomes through advancements in device technology and design. The extravascular cardioverter-defibrillator (EV-ICD) represents such an innovation, offering key advantages over other ICD systems. It incorporates a lead positioned in the substernal space, enabling the delivery of pause-prevention security pacing, antitachycardia pacing, and defibrillation energy similar to that provided by conventional transvenous ICDs. Previous studies have demonstrated that EV-ICDs can be implanted safely and are capable of terminating majority of induced ventricular arrhythmias during implantation; however, follow-up data are limited to highly experienced selected centers and over a relativ
