Left ventricular (LV) lead in cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is the most important and difficult lead to place, leading to abandonment of up to 10–15 % of procedures. Here we discuss various difficulties encountered in percutaneous placement of LV leads and what all can be done to ensure successful placement of the same and to prevent the already compromised patient from the requirement of epicardial lead placement.
