Cardiac resynchronisation therapy in a pace-dependent infant with tetralogy of Fallot

We present the case of a 5-month-old infant with tetralogy of Fallot and congenital atrio-ventricular block that developed severe left ventricular dysfunction during apical left ventricular pacing, in which cardiac resynchronisation therapy was used as an emergency procedure due to persistent low ca...
