pubmed:abstractText
A man with acute endocarditis developed complete heart block several days after the tricuspid and aortic valve replacement. Several weeks after implantation, his epimyocardial pacing leads developed a high threshold and failed to capture the ventricle at the maximal pulse width and output of the pacemaker. An angled-tip lead was placed in the middle cardiac vein for ventricular pacing. The pacing and sensing thresholds of this lead were within the expected range during follow-up. Therefore, in patients with prosthetic tricuspid valve, pacing in the middle cardiac vein should be considered before open-chest placement of the epimyocardial lead.
