Successful leadless pacemaker implantation in a patient with profound bradycardia following transcatheter aortic valve replacement and mitral valve-in-valve procedure

Abstract

Leadless pacemakers provide a potential alternative to conventional transvenous pacemakers for patients undergoing high-risk transcatheter valve replacement procedures. This is a description of a successful leadless pacemaker implantation in a 51-year-old woman who developed profound bradycardia following a transcatheter aortic valve replacement and mitral valve-in-valve procedure.
