Sequential Use of Aminophylline and Theophylline for Temporizing Neck Cancer-Induced Carotid Sinus Syncope

Carotid sinus syncope due to head and neck cancer is uncommon and the management is challenging. Permanent pacemaker implantation is generally considered but malnutrition with subsequent chemo-radiation increases the risk of device infection. This is a first case report of the sequential use of amin...

description Carotid sinus syncope due to head and neck cancer is uncommon and the management is challenging. Permanent pacemaker implantation is generally considered but malnutrition with subsequent chemo-radiation increases the risk of device infection. This is a first case report of the sequential use of aminophylline and theophylline for pharmacological temporization. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
