Single-case success should not alter practice; leaves open reliability of transvenous pacing in left SVC anomalies.
Case Report (n=1)
Transvenous pacemaker implantation can be successfully performed and maintained long-term in patients with a unilateral left superior vena cava and anomalous inferior vena cava drainage.
Rønnevik et al. (1982) conducted a case report in Unilateral left superior vena cava and anomalous drainage of the inferior vena cava requiring permanent pacing (n=1). Transvenous pacemaker implantation was evaluated on Successful pacemaker implantation and function. Transvenous pacemaker implantation was successfully performed in a patient with a unilateral left superior vena cava, with normal pacemaker function maintained at 32 months.
