Single case of AF conversion after CRT is hypothesis-generating; does not support practice change and requires prospective validation.
Case Report (n=1)
Demonstrates a rare case of spontaneous conversion of long-standing permanent atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm following biventricular pacing in a patient with heart failure.
K. Malinowski (2003) conducted a case report in Drug refractory congestive heart failure and permanent atrial fibrillation (n=1). Biventricular pacing system was evaluated on Spontaneous conversion of atrial fibrillation into sinus rhythm. Implantation of a biventricular pacing system in a 68-year-old woman with permanent atrial fibrillation led to spontaneous conversion to stable sinus rhythm after 17 months.
