title: Reel Syndrome--A Variety of Twiddler's Syndrome.
abstract: Reel syndrome is an uncommon condition in which a patient's subconscious, inadvertent, or deliberate external manipulation of their cardiac pacemaker results in the movement of the transducer wires along its transverse axis. We report a clinical case of a 67 year old lady with permanent pacemaker presenting with pacemaker malfunction and was detected with reel syndrome.
