Successful dual chamber ICD implantation via a persistent left superior vena cava after ratchet syndrome
Device implantations may be challenging in patients with venous abnormalities. The most common congenital variation, frequently associated with other congenital abnormalities, is a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC), and successful atrial and ventricular lead implantation via a PLSVC have both been reported [1]. “Ratchet syndrome” has also been reported as a rare complication after a ne...
متن کاملImplantation of a passive fixation dual chamber pacemaker in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava.
Electrode instability and displacement have been reported in patients who underwent pacemaker implantation via persistent left superior vena cava. An active-fixation system, and sometimes epicardial pacing, is necessary to maintain pacing stability. We report the case of a 76-year-old man with a left superior vena cava who required dual-chamber permanent pacing. Passive-fixation atrial and vent...
متن کاملIsolated Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava, Sick Sinus Syndrome, and Challenging Pacemaker Implantation
Persistent left superior vena cava with absent right superior vena cava is a very rare venous anomaly and is known as isolated PLSVC. It is usually an asymptomatic anomaly and is mostly detected during difficult central venous access or pacemaker implantation, though it could also be associated with an increased incidence of congenital heart disease, arrhythmias, and conduction disturbances. He...
متن کاملA plea for the single-lead ICD with atrial sensing due to anatomical considerations.
We present the case of a 46-year old male patient suffering from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and intermittent atrial tachycardia. According to guidelines an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) was planned to implant through the left subclavian vein. During the procedure the angiography revealed a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) with moderate stenosis of the subclavian vein. ...
متن کاملPersistent Left Superior Vena Cava in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Device Implantation: Clinical and Long-Term Data
BACKGROUND Persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) is a rare congenital venous anomaly that may be found at the time of cardiac device lead insertion. METHODS In this case series, we present clinical and long-term data of five patients with LSVC who underwent pacemaker (PM) or cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation during the period of 10 years. RESULTS Left-sided venous approach w...
