Reticular telangiectatic erythema (RTE) is a skin reaction associated with implantable cardiac devices (ie, pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators). We present a patient who developed an erythematous patch over the implantable cardioverter defibrillator site. We discuss the clinical features, histologic findings, and patch testing of this entity.
