Abstract

AbstractCentral venous obstruction following pacemaker implantation is not uncommon and can prove challenging in the case of a system upgrade to a cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT‐P). We describe the case of a patient who underwent a successful upgrading procedure of a pacemaker to a CRT‐P in the presence of an occluded left subclavian vein and superior vena cava, using collateral veins that drained into right atrium.
