Permanent Pacemaker Implantation Challenged by an Elevated Left Hemidiaphragm
This is a case of a 93 year old patient who presented with a syncopal episode due to infra-nodal atrio-ventricular block (AVB) which required placement of a permanent pacemaker (PPM). The initial pre-procedure chest x-ray (CXR) showed an elevated left hemidiaphragm with shifting of the heart to the right making PPM implant challenging.
