Technical Tips and Efficacy of Leadless Pacemaker Implantation in a Patient With Isolated Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 41, Issue 4, August 2025.
Isolated persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) provides limited access during transvenous pacemaker implantation. We present a case of implantation of a leadless pacemaker for atrioventricular block with isolated PLSVC. A leadless pacemaker is an alternative strategy to a transvenous pacemaker; however, some technical tips are required: (1) the ...
