Long-term transvenous temporary pacing with active fixation bipolar lead in the management of severe autonomic dysfunction in Miller-Fisher syndrome: a case report.

Management of severe autonomic dysfunction in patients with Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) or its variant Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS) include placement of permanent pacemaker. We report a case of MFS with severe bradycardia and asystole treated initially with an external permanent (temporary-permanent) pacemaker with a transvenous, active fixation right ventricular lead placement as a "bridge" to permanent pacing.
