ABSTRACT Patients with persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) are usually asymptomatic, but due to its anatomical defects, difficulties in establishing central venous access, pacemaker implantation and cardiothoracic surgery are common. We report a case of 65 years old patient who presented with complete heart block in cardiac critical care and, after emergency transvenous pacing, the chest X-ray showed unusual course of the transvenous pacing lead, which on further transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) evaluation demonstrated dilated coronary sinus with PLSVC.

Persistent left superior vena cava with absent right superior vena cava is a very rare venous anomaly and is known as isolated PLSVC. It is usually an asymptomatic anomaly and is mostly detected during difficult central venous access or pacemaker implantation, though it could also be associated with an increased incidence of congenital heart disease, arrhythmias, and conduction disturbances. Herein, we describe a dual-chamber pacemaker implantation in a patient with isolated PLSVC and sick sinus syndrome.
