Coronary sinus stenting for stabilizing a difficult quadripolar left ventricular lead

Highlights

  • A 56-year-old male presented with a history of dyspnea on exertion New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3 for the last 2 years

  • Catheters were removed without any left ventricular (LV) lead dislodgement and there was no diaphragmatic stimulation

  • He was under regular follow up with improved symptoms (NYHA class 1) and acceptable LV lead parameters of threshold and impedance of 1.5 V/0.4 ms, 900Ω respectively after 12 months
