| Popis: | We describe the case of a 19-year-old girl with a left superior vena cava and a surgically corrected complete atrioventricular canal defect. After an inhospital sudden death an automatic defibrillator-cardioverter was implanted through her left superior vena cava. During the postoperative course, multiple inappropriate discharges caused by myopotential oversensing indicated the relocation of the electrode and, finally, insertion of two epicardial leads by a left submammarian thoracotomy approach, produced an optimal result. |
