Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) has proven to be an alternative method for delivering physiological pacing to achieve electrical synchrony of the left ventricle (LV), especially in patients with atrioventricular block and left bundle branch block (LBBB). However, it is unclear whether it still achieved in patients whose left bundle branch (LBB) has had surgery-induced damage. The Morrow operation (Morrow septal myectomy) is regarded as one of the most effective treatments for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). The surgery resects small sections of muscle tissue in the proximal ventricular septum nearby or contains the LBB, which means that physical damage to the LBB is almost inevitable. Approximately 2%-12% of patients may need pacemaker implanted after Morrow surgery. LBBP is a feasible and effective method for achieving electric resynchronization of LBBB compared to right ventricular pacing (RVB). Nevertheless, there is a dearth of data on LBBP in third-degree atrioventricular block (AVB) following Morrow surgery. We report a case of successful LBBP in those patients.

Background: Interventricular dyssynchrony derived from the classic non-physiological stimulation (n-PS) of the right ventricle (RV) is a known cause of left ventricular dysfunction (LVDys).
Methods: This was a prospective descriptive single-center study. We analyzed patients who develop LVDys with n-PS, and the results after upgrading to conduction system pacing (CSP).

Background: Open and crushed forearm injury is a complex and rare injury affecting the upper extremity. It results in damage to various structures, including bones, soft tissues, and neurovascular bundles, ultimately leading to functional impairment. Typically, these injuries occur owing to high-energy trauma.

Background: Coronary Artery Spasm (CAS) often presents in the epicardial coronary arteries. The anterior septal branch is distributed within the myocardium, and occurrences of spasms are rare. Currently, there is no available literature on this topic, and the onset of symptoms remains elusive, potentially leading to misdiagnosis.

Recently published data suggested significantly lower pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) incidence with conduction system pacing (CSP). Because most data evaluated only the impact on the left ventricle, this study aimed to assess changes in echocardiographic parameters of morphology and function for all heart chambers in patients with baseline preserved and mid-range LVEF over a medium-term follow-up period after CSP. A total of 128 consecutive patients with LVEF > 40% and successful CSP for bradyarrhythmic indication were prospectively enrolled.

Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) needs confirmation of left conduction system capture assessed by testing of different electrical parameters. Guidelines recommend the use of an electrophysiological recording-system (EP-RS) to guide conduction system pacing (CSP) procedures. However, some experienced centers perform LBBAP procedures without an EP-RS.
