Key result
Endocardial left ventricular lead placement via transseptal puncture using a GooseNeck snare was successfully performed in all 3 patients with an implant time of 25-55 minutes.
Why the study?
Does endocardial LV lead implantation via transseptal puncture using a GooseNeck snare allow successful lead placement in patients with failed coronary sinus LV lead implantation?

May support bailout LV lead placement after failed CS attempts; hypothesis-generating pending larger prospective data.
Wright et al. (2012) conducted a case report in Failed or extracted epicardial LV leads (n=3). Endocardial LV lead placement via transseptal puncture using a GooseNeck snare was evaluated on Successful implantation. Endocardial left ventricular lead placement via transseptal puncture using a GooseNeck snare was successfully performed in all 3 patients with an implant time of 25-55 minutes.
