Abstract

We report the case of a 66-year-old man with heart failure NYHA class IV treated with biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization. The patient was evaluated by real-time three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography before and 48 hours after pacemaker implantation. The use of three-dimensional echocardiography contributed to understanding the underlying mechanism involved in cardiac resynchronization therapy by demonstrating enhanced synchrony of myocardial segments, which resulted in the patient's clinical improvement.
