Atrial placement of Aveir-VR leadless pacemaker in a patient with complex cardiac anatomy

Leadless pacemakers have provided new treatment modalities that can be especially useful in patients with complex cardiac anatomy and contraindications toward other pacemaker approaches. The Aveir™ single-chamber (VR) leadless pacemaker (LP) (Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, IL) is a recently approved device that can be placed in the right ventricle for patients with bradycardia. In this case, we present a novel use for the device through placement in the atrium to control atrial flutter in a patient with a hypoplastic right ventricle.
