Congenital complete atrioventricular block can be concomitant with congenital heart diseases or maternal connective tissue disorders like systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's syndrome. Such patients may require implantation of a permanent pacemaker due to ventricular dysfunction. While many methods of pacemaker implantation have been tested, one that is optimal for low birth weight infants remains to be determined. We present a preterm infant with maternal Sjögren's syndrome with congenital heart block and describe the technique for implantation of an intrathoracic dual-chamber pacemaker.
先天性完全性房室传导阻滞可与先天性心脏病或母亲的结缔组织疾病如系统性红斑狼疮和干燥综合征同时存在。由于心室功能障碍,此类患者可能需要植入永久性起搏器。虽然已经测试了许多起搏器植入方法,但对于低体重婴儿而言最佳的方法仍有待确定。我们报告一例患有先天性心脏传导阻滞且母亲患有干燥综合征的早产儿,并描述胸腔内双腔起搏器的植入技术。
