Failing systemic right ventricle in a patient with dextrocardia and complex congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: a case report of successful transvenous cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Systemic RV dysfunction in ccTGA can be aggravated by chronic pacing-induced dyssynchrony, contributing to progression of heart failure in this patient group. Transvenous CRT is feasible in ccTGA anatomy and may be pursued in order to improve or preserve the functional status of pacing-dependent ccTGA patients. Invasive haemodynamic contractility evaluation can help assess the potential benefit of CRT in patients with complex anatomy.
