Coronary sinus dissection during left ventricular pacing electrode implantation.

Coronary sinus (CS) dissection during biventricular pacing electrode implantation is a complication that rarely develops. A 71-year-old female with recurrent ventricular tachycardia, heart decompensation, and poor left ventricular function because of dilated cardiomyopathy was admitted for the implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator for biventricular pacing. During the operation, we experi...

Rescue-stenting of an occluded lateral coronary sinus branch for recanalization after dissection during cardiac resynchronization device implantation.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) using left- (LV) or biventricular pacing is widely applied in selected heart failure patients. However, transvenous LV-lead placement into coronary sinus (CS) branches can be challenging. A 77-year-old female patient with New York Heart Association class III symptoms due to dilated cardiomyopathy [LV ejection fraction (LVEF): 10%, QRS-duration: 150 ms], d...

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: Lead Positioning and Technical Advances

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a therapeutic option for heart failure patients with a severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and left bundle branch block (Cleland et al., 2001). Ventricular resynchronization is achieved by biventricular pacing, usually via electrodes in the right ventricular apex and a left ventricular (LV) electrode positioned in a coronary vein. About...

Six year experience of transvenous left ventricular lead implantation for permanent biventricular pacing in patients with advanced heart failure: technical aspects.

BACKGROUND Biventricular pacing has been proposed as an adjuvant to optimal medical treatment in patients with drug refractory heart failure caused by chronic left ventricular systolic dysfunction and intraventricular conduction delay. OBJECTIVE To assess the technical feasibility and long term results (over six years) of transverse left ventricular pacing with the lead inserted into a tribut...

Contralateral Pneumothorax in Left Sided CRT Device Implantation

A 78-year-old male patient underwent implantation of cardiac resynchronization devise with defibrillator (CRT-D) for dilated cardiomyopathy and congestive cardiac failure. Patient received a Guidant CRT-ICD. RV lead during implantation, subclavian access was obtained by venogram assisted extra thoracic puncture of the subclavian vein. Right atrial (RA) lead was initially attempted in the right ...
