  • Title: Atrioventricular Sequential Pacing for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy During Liver Transplantation.
    Author: Ramos J, Pai SL, Perry DK, Blackshear JL, Aniskevich S.
    Journal: A A Case Rep; 2015 Oct 15; 5(8):134-8. PubMed ID: 26466305.
    Abstract:
    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a myocardial disorder that carries an increased risk of morbidity and mortality during liver transplantation. We describe the use of atrioventricular sequential pacing, placed preoperatively, to assist with intraoperative management of a patient with severe refractory hypertrophic cardiomyopathy undergoing orthotopic piggyback liver transplantation. We discuss the pathogenesis and treatment of this infrequent but serious comorbidity.
