Permanent Pacemaker Positioning Via the Inferior Vena Cava in a Case of Single Ventricle with Loss of Right Atrial‐Vena Cava Continuity

Permanent Pacemaker Positioning Via the Inferior Vena Cava in a Case of Single Ventricle with Loss of Right Atrial‐Vena Cava Continuity

Successful dual chamber pacing was achieved by implanting permanent pacemaker leads using an extra‐peritoneal approach to the inferior vena cava in a 48‐year‐old patient with a single ventricle, transposition of the great vessels, and a right atrial pulmonary artery shunt (Glenn's procedure). T...

Zusammenfassung:Successful dual chamber pacing was achieved by implanting permanent pacemaker leads using an extra‐peritoneal approach to the inferior vena cava in a 48‐year‐old patient with a single ventricle, transposition of the great vessels, and a right atrial pulmonary artery shunt (Glenn's procedure). The pacemaker generator was implanted into a subcutaneous pockel in the anterior abdominal wall.
