Abstract

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) poses technical challenges to implantation of transvenous cardiac implantable electronic devices. His-bundle pacing is a physiologic pacing strategy to avoid or treat pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. We report a case of His-bundle lead implantation in a patient with PLSVC, absent right SVC, and pacing-induced cardiomyopathy.

Keywords: electrophysiology-clinical; pacing.
