Description

A case of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) in a patient of DVI mode for Sick Sinus Syndrome was presented. Generally a patient with a cardiac pacemaker has been regarded as unsuitable for ESWL because the effect of the shock waves on the function of pacemakers was still unknown. In the presented case the ESWL was successfully performed on the patient with turning off the pacemaker and supplementation of intravenous isoproterenol and phenylephrine under epidural anesthesia.
