Abstract:
An unusual case of neck cancer with associated C-6 dermatome neuralgia causing vasodepressor syncope episodes is discussed. Pacemaker therapy proved not to be required. When evaluating syncope with bradycardia, it is important to search for underlying causes and to ascertain whether or not pacemaker therapy is indicated.
