The objective of this study was to pace via a coronary vein to avoid interfering with the tricuspid valve prosthesis function. Pacing leads were inserted into the posterior cardiac vein in a 68-year-old woman (patient 1), and in the great cardiac vein and the right auricle in a 32-year-old woman (patient 2). In patient 1 the stimulation threshold was 1.8 V at implant and stabilized at 3.0 V at the 24-month follow-up. In patient 2 the ventricular pacing threshold was 1.2 V at implant and stabilized at 0.7 V at the 24-month follow-up. The cardiac output at rest increased 43% during atrioventricular synchronous pacing compared to ventricular pacing. Long-term stable ventricular pacing via the coronary venous system was obtained.
