Inappropriate S-ICD shock related to atrio-ventricular block: when the true culprit is not overt.
Anno:

Subcutaneous implantable cardiac defibrillator (S-ICD) is a well-established alternative to transvenous defibrillator in patients with an indication for an ICD without the concomitant need of pacing.
