Abstract
An implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator was attempted in a 32-year-old man with atrial tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia and sinus node dysfunction. He had undergone a Senning operation and half closure of ventricular septal defect in order to correct a transposition of the great arteries. Cardiac catheterization revealed severe pulmonary hypertension and Eisenmenger syndrome. Prior knowledge of the complex cardiac anatomy obtained by magnetic resonance imaging helped in determining the suitable site for implanting the leads and planning the procedural strategy. With repletion of a large amount of saline and oral anticoagulation with warfarin, no complications related to thromboembolism occurred during a 10-month follow-up period.
