Left Bundle Area Pacing for Tachycardia-Bradycardia Syndrome in a Patient With Dextrocardia

JACC Case Rep. 2022 Sep 21;4(18):1213-1217. doi: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2022.07.019.

Abstract

We present the case of an 81-year-old woman with a background of situs inversus with dextrocardia who was successfully treated for tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome with left bundle area pacing. This report describes how this approach can circumvent the limitations of other pacing approaches to optimize patient outcomes. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
