Abstract

A dying neonate with congenital complete atrioventricular block underwent an emergency temporary pacing via the umbilical vein 1 h after birth. Implantation of a permanent epicardial pacemaker system was performed at the age of 10 days. During the follow-up period of 3 months, the child had been growing well with the VVIR pacemaker.
