A 64-year-old female patient with a history of heart failure, New York Heart Association class III/IV, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, left ventricular ejection fraction of 12%, and a QRS width of 180 ms qualified for implantation of an implantable cardiac defibrillator with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRTD). She also underwent surgery for mitral valve replacement a few years ago. In 1964, she had a pneumonectomy due …
