Do not always accuse the leads... : Case report

A 28-year-old female with long-QT syndrome had received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) 4 years and 6 months earlier for secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death. She presented with apparent dual-lead failure (sudden increase in pacing impedance and threshold of atrial and ventricular leads) after backpacking (∼30 kg) for several months.
