A permanently implanted endocardial electrode complicating ventricular tachycardia with a second VT.

A VVI pacemaker was permanently implanted for the purpose of suppressing recurrent ventricular tachycardia (VT). Not only did the device fail to suppress the VT, but also the permanent endocardial electrode caused a second VT which was more rapid and clinically more severe. When a new VT occurs in the presence of a permanently implanted ventricular pacing system, the implanted electrode should be considered as one of the possible etiologic causes for the VT.

Intrahisian functional bundle branch block.

A patient with functional complete left bundle branch block is presented. The site of block was localized to the area of the His bundle. This case demonstrates that functional complete left bundle branch block may be due to longitudinal dissociation in the His bundle.

Should this patient be paced? An indication for His bundle study: syncope, a normal P-R interval and a narrow QRS.

This report describes a patient who presented with transient central nervous system symptoms of unknown etiology with an electro-cardiogram exhibiting a narrow QRS complex and normal. P-R interval. The decision to implant a permanent VII pacemaker was made on the basis of a His bundle study that revealed significant prolongation of the HV interval. The successful clinical outcome re-emphasizes the clinical usefulness of electrophysiological investigation in patients with syncope of undetermined etiology.
