Dilated Cardiomyopathy Associated with Dual‐Chamber Pacing in Infants:

Abstract: The etiology of dilated cardiomyopathy associated with congenital complete AV block has not yet been clarified. Two infants with AV block of autoimmune and surgical etiology, respectively, had received a dual-chamber right ventricular-based pacemaker and developed dilated cardiomyopathy with severe septal to left ventricular free-wall dyssynchrony 3.4 (0.9) years later. After 4 weeks of biventricular pacing and spontaneous junctional narrow QRS rhythm, respectively, both children showed significant improvement… Show more

“…Severe pacemaker-induced MR may be relieved by restoration of LV synchrony with LV/biventricular pacing or simply by programming the pacemaker to a low rate to permit the emergence of spontaneous beats thereby eliminating LV dyssynchrony [12] [13].…”

“…Risk factors may include presence of anti-SSA/Ro -SSB/La antibodies, increased heart size at initial evaluation and the absence of pacemaker-associated normalization of left ventricular size during follow-up (Udink ten Cate et al, 2001). Although pacemaker-induced ventricular dysfunction has been offered as an etiologic factor in the pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy in these patients (Janousek et al, 2004), some children with anti-SSA/Ro -SSB/La antibody-induced CCAVB develop dilated cardiomyopathy before being paced (Nield et al, 2002;Villain et al, 2006). These data suggest that children with anti-SSA/Ro -SSB/La antibody-induced CCAVB may have preexisting myocardial damage, which increases their risk of pacemakerinduced dilated cardiomyopathy.…”
