Implication

May offer transvenous pacing alternative in select Fontan patients; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with sinus node dysfunction and single-ventricle physiology palliated via the Fontan procedure with an extracardiac lateral tunnel

Intervention

Transvenous approach to pacemaker lead implantation

Describes a transvenous approach to pacemaker lead implantation in patients with sinus node dysfunction following extracardiac lateral tunnel Fontan palliation, overcoming anatomical barriers.
