... Background: Pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PiCM) is frequently associated with right ventricular (RV) pacing. This may occur in patients who require pacing more than 40-50% of the time. We present a case of PiCM in a patient with bradycardia-induced polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (BiPVT). Case ...
