In order to reduce sudden cardiac death and heart failure symptoms, biventricular implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation is a treatment method commonly used in selected patients with cardiomyopathy. The frequency of dextrocardia in congenital heart defects is approximately 0.4/10000. In this group, the frequency of cardiomyopathy development is rare. In this case report we present a patient with dextrocardia undergoing implantation of biventricular ICD.
为了减少心源性猝死和心力衰竭症状,双心室植入式心脏复律除颤器(ICD)植入是常用于特定心肌病患者的一种治疗方法。先天性心脏缺陷中右位心的发生率约为0.4/10000。在该组中,发生心肌病的频率罕见。在本病例报告中,我们介绍了一名接受双心室ICD植入的右位心患者。
