  • Title: Atrial pacing via unilateral persistent left superior vena cava.
    Author: Robbens EJ, Ruiter JH.
    Journal: Pacing Clin Electrophysiol; 1986 Jul; 9(4):594-6. PubMed ID: 2426679.
    Abstract:
    A patient who suffered from sinus node dysfunction and automatic atrial tachycardias underwent pacemaker implantation during which time a unilateral left superior vena cava was found. Despite the known difficulties in using this venous route, it was possible to place a transvenous endocardial screw-in lead in a stable position in the lower lateral wall of the right atrium.
