The transfemoral approach for cardiac resynchronization therapy
2015
Cardiac resynchronization (CRT) is a well-established treatment for heart failure and standard superior implantation has a high success rate with acceptable risk profile. When the superior approach is not feasible, surgical epicardial leads are considered. We present a case of transfemoral CRT as a viable alternative to surgical systems and discuss implant factors including lead choice and deep vein thrombosis.
