ABSTRACT Patients with persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) are usually asymptomatic, but due to its anatomical defects, difficulties in establishing central venous access, pacemaker implantation and cardiothoracic surgery are common. We report a case of 65 years old patient who presented with complete heart block in cardiac critical care and, after emergency transvenous pacing, the chest X-ray showed unusual course of the transvenous pacing lead, which on further transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) evaluation demonstrated dilated coronary sinus with PLSVC.
