Pediatric patients with complete congenital atrio-ventricular (AV) block are generally exposed to life-long dyssynchronous right ventricular (RV) pacing. His bundle pacing (HBP) is an alternative method of pacing that better restores physiological ventricular activation which could prevent pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. We present a case of a 5-year-old child with complete AV block who underwent successful permanent HBP implantation. Three-dimensional electro-anatomical mapping system was used to facilitate the procedure and reduce the fluoroscopy time. There were no acute procedure-related complications, and electrical parameters were stable at short-term follow-up.
