Permanent His-bundle pacing may be a safe and effective alternative for managing patients with sick sinus syndrome and AV block.

His-bundle pacing succeeded in one case; hypothesis-generating for sick sinus syndrome with AV block and requires prospective validation.
BACKGROUND: This case report presents a patient diagnosed with sick sinus syndrome who was successfully treated with permanent His-bundle pacing (PHBP). CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old man was transferred to our hospital due to recurrent syncope. He was diagnosed with sick sinus syndrome based on the 24-h Holter and a history of syncope. He was admitted to hospital and successfully treated with PHBP. The postoperative examination showed that the pacing rhythm, pacemaker pacing and perception function were normal. He was discharged without any complications after a successful pacemaker implantation. CONCLUSIONS: We described a case in which PHBP may become an optimal approach to the management of patients with sick sinus syndrome. Right ventricular pacing has been attempted with inconsistent efficacy outcomes. HBP provides a promising alternative pacing option that might provide symptom resolution to patients with sick sinus syndrome.
