TI  - [Stabilization of a dislocated coronary sinus electrode by coronary stenting 
      during resynchronization therapy].
PG  - 341-4
AB  - Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective treatment in patients 
      with severe refractory heart failure combined with intraventricular conduction 
      disease, improving quality of life and decreasing mortality. In CRT, pacing of 
      the left ventricle is accomplished by a coronary sinus (CS) electrode. The main 
      challenge for this technique is to achieve and maintain an optimal lead position 
      so that no dislocation occurs. Cardiac resynchronization therapy was planned in a 
      66-year-old male patient with NYHA (New York Heart Association) class 3-4 
      symptoms and left bundle branch block. After two dislocations of the pacing lead 
      from the posterolateral CS, the lead was implanted in the middle cardiac vein and 
      stabilized by coronary stenting. During a six-month follow-up, no further 
      dislocation occurred and pacing parameters were normal.
