    Physiological Pacing in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries with Atrioventricular Block

    Zhuoxi Feng#,1, Jinyang Liu#,2, Zihao Wu1, Ziran Geng1, Zhimin Liu1,*

    Congenital Heart Disease, Vol.20, No.5, pp. 625-636, 2025, DOI:10.32604/chd.2025.069214 - 30 November 2025

    Abstract Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) is a rare congenital heart disease characterized by atrioventricular, ventriculoarterial, and conduction system discordance, commonly accompanied by atrioventricular block (AVB). Pacing in patients with CCTGA and AVB (both pediatric and adult) poses challenges in strategy selection, procedural complexity, and clinical decision-making due to limited evidence. Conventional morphological left ventricular pacing is widely adopted but may induce ventricular dyssynchrony, heart failure, and tricuspid valve dysfunction. While cardiac resynchronization therapy serves as an upgrade for pacing-induced cardiomyopathy and heart failure, its application may be limited by coronary sinus anatomical… More >

    Fetal Bradyarrhythmias: Etiopathogenesis, Diagnosis and Treatment: Between Literature Review and Experience of a Tertiary Center

    Elio Caruso*, Silvia Farruggio, Salvatore Agati, Corrado Di Mambro

    Congenital Heart Disease, Vol.16, No.4, pp. 309-331, 2021, DOI:10.32604/CHD.2021.015470 - 19 April 2021

    Abstract Fetal arrhythmias reach up around 10% of the total third-level perinatal cardiology references. Sustained bradycardia is defined as a baseline fetal heart rate (FHR) of less than 110 bpm sustained for at least 10 min. The overall incidence of malignant fetal bradyarrhythmias, such as complete atrioventricular block (AVB) and channellopathies, is relatively rare, 1:5000 pregnancies, but represents a serious emergency for the gynecologist, neonatologists, and pediatric cardiologists. Fetal complete AVB is strongly associated with maternal connective tissue disease, but it can be also associated with congenital heart disease and usually with a poorer prognosis with More >
