How many leads through persistent left superior vein cava and coronary sinus?

Abstract

In the modern implanting era with progressive expanding indications to resynchronization therapy, upgrading procedure is a relatively common event. Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC), the most common venous abnormality, may exacerbate technical difficulties. We describe the procedure of upgrading from a dual chamber pacemaker to resynchronization/defibrillation system with a total of 4 leads through a PLSVC entering a dilated coronary sinus (CS) never described before. The case report, in addition to the description of a unique technical approach, raises a lot of clinical questions about how many leads we can introduce in such a venous structure and inside CS without hemodynamic impact on venous drainage potentially leading to life-threatening situations.
