Abstract

Introduction: Left bundle branch pacing is a recently described form of conduction system pacing which can correct left-bundle branch block and deliver cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The WiSE-CRT system delivers leadless endocardial pacing and can improve symptoms and left ventricular remodelling in CRT non-responders. Case Report: We describe the case of a 57 year old male who underwent implantation of the WiSE-CRT system after failed conventional CRT. Pacing the left bundle during implant achieved superior electrical resynchronization and equivalent hemodynamic response compared to pacing the lateral wall. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the potential for leadless left bundle branch pacing.
