Fig 1 Postoperative (A) anteroposterior and (B) lateral chest radiograph view of a patient with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. The distal coil is in the pericardium parallel to the right atrium. The proximal coil was placed on the diaphragmatic part of the left ventricle and the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator subpectorally.

Fig 2 Postoperative (A) anteroposterior and (B) lateral chest radiograph view of a patient with a total epicardial implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. The distal coil is in the transverse sinus, and the proximal coil inferior on the diaphragm. The implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was placed subcostally.
