Abstract
Context: Bradyarrhythmias are typically an early consequence of spinal cord injury (SCI).
Findings: A 30-year-old woman with high cervical SCI developed symptomatic delayed-bradyarrhythmia six years post-injury.
Conclusion/clinical relevance: This case provides evidence of delayed-bradyarrhythmia status due to autonomic dysfunction after SCI. Leadless permanent pacemakers are an effective and safe treatment alternative to traditional pacemakers.
