This is a report of a case of carotid sinus hypersensitivity treated with an endocardial demand ventricular inhibited pacemaker. With this modern form of therapy of carotid sinus hypersensitivity we have obtained in the case presented a complete resolution of lipothymic attacks due to complete atrioventricular (A-V) block secondary to carotid sinus stimulation. The patient discharged from the hospital after seven days from the implantation of the pacemaker has been symptom free at a control after eight months.
