The study population included 100 patients paced for total atrioventricular (AV) block or second\u2010degree AV block (type II Mobitz) and 110 patients paced for sick sinus syndrome (SSS). The pacing mode was randomized. All patients underwent a brain computed tomography (CT) scan at the date of enrollment and after 1 and 2 years.

Comparing the different pacing modalities, we reported an increase in the incidence of atrial fibrillation in patients receiving ventricular pacing (p&lt;0.05). On the other hand, no difference was found between patients paced for AV block and those paced for SSS. At the end of follow\u2010up, we reported 29 cases of cerebral ischemia: 9 patients had AV block while 20 had SSS (p&lt;0.05).
