We present a case of a 62-year-old male with significantly reduced ejection fraction and heart failure who underwent resynchronization therapy. During the procedure a left bundle branch block was corrected with His bundle pacing. A dramatic improvement of echocardiographic parameters and symptoms has been observed 6 weeks after the procedure.

Keywords: Heart failure, His bundle pacing, LBBB, Resynchronization therapy
