Abstract

An 83 year-old man underwent attempted cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT-P), but was found to have a persistent left superior vena cava (SVC) and absence of a right SVC. Additionally, no suitable coronary sinus (CS) veins were found. Instead, conduction system pacing with a modified approach was used.
