Left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony may occur as a result of right ventricular (RV) pacing and is a known risk factor for the development of heart failure. In children with complete atrioventricular block, pacing-induced dyssynchrony lasting for decades might be especially deleterious for LV function. To determine the hemodynamic and ultrastructural remodeling after either RV free wall or LV apical pacing, we used a chronic minipig model.
