Angiography of the right ventricle prior to implantation of the Micra (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) transcatheter pacing system device (frontal 17° right anterior oblique, 1° caudal). Target implantation site was the niche underneath the Amplatzer ventricular septal defect occluder (asterisk, dotted line).
