The right ventricle (RV) remains the 'forgotten chamber' in the clinical assessment of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD).

Introduction: Transvenous pacemaker implantation in patients post bidirectional Glenn anastomosis in one-and-a-half ventricle repair is usually not feasible. However, with a modified surgical technique for Glenn anastomosis and a combined interventional and electrophysiologic approach, the transvenous pacemaker was successfully implanted.

Findings And Conclusions: We reported a novel technique of pacemaker implantation in a 27-year-old woman, underlying Ebstein anomaly of the tricuspid valve, who developed intermittent complete atrioventricular block at 5 years after surgical repair.
