Supports feasibility of dual-chamber pacing in persistent left SVC; leaves open broader applicability pending larger series.
Case Report (n=1)
Dual chamber pacemaker implantation is feasible in patients with persistent left superior vena cava using specific stylet curving techniques.
Antonelli et al. (1997) conducted a case report in Symptomatic sinus bradycardia with persistent left superior vena cava (n=1). Dual chamber pacemaker implantation was evaluated on Pacemaker function and lead position. Dual chamber pacemaker implantation in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava was successful using specific stylet curving techniques, with normal function and stable lead position at 18 months.
