Cardiac resynchronization therapy in an orthotopic heart transplant recipient

Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established therapy in selected patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), its role in orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) recipients remains understudied. We describe a case of successful CRT implantation in an OHT recipient for HFrEF and high-grade atrioventricular block. This case highlights the deliberations made given the lack of clinical trial and observational evidence for this therapy in OHT recipients.
