Core Tip |
Although the diagnosis of persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) does not make a pacemaker or implantable cardiovertor-defibrillator placement impossible, it does pose significant challenges and complications during the procedure. Accordingly, when patients are being considered for such central venous catheter devices, special attention should be paid to the imaging work-up prior to implantation to identify persistent LSVC if present. |
