Cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator implantation guided by electroanatomic mapping in a young adult patient with congenital heart disease.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation is a therapeutic option for adult patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), bundle branch block, reduced ejection fraction and symptoms of heart failure. A new implantation approach guided by the electroanatomic mapping (EAM) has been developed to overcome some issues of the standard technique: non-responder patients, high x-ray exposure and use of iodinated contrast medium for coronary sinus angiography. This approach has not been previously described in the CHD population. We report a case of EAM-guided approach for CRT-D implantation in a young adult patient with CHD.
