Leadless pacemaker implant guided by intracardiac echocardiography in a patient after Mustard repair

This case report describes a successful leadless pacemaker implant (Micra VR Medtronic, Inc, Minneapolis, MN) in a 48-year-old patient with a history of Mustard repair. Twenty-one years after dual-chamber pacemaker implant, both conventional leads became dysfunctional. Lead extraction was refused by the patient and the subclavian vein was obstructed. A leadless pacemaker was selected as an alternative. Intracardiac echocardiography allowed the safe introduction of the delivery system into the nonsystemic left ventricle. Four months after implant, the pacing parameters are stable and the patient is without new complaints. A leadless pacemaker could be considered in patients with complex grown-up congenital heart disease (GUCH).
