Congenital left ventricular diverticulum manifested as T-wave inversion in a child.

abstract：:Right ventricular (RV) pacing can be associated with impairment of left ventricular (LV) function due to electrical dyssynchrony and myocardial remodeling (Janousek et al. in J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol 15:470-474, 2004). RV-pacing induced ventricular dysfunction is reversible by techniques such as biventricular pacin...
