This article describes for the first time in the domestic literature a clinical case of the therapeutic effect of neuromodulation on the permanent form of atrial fibrillation and chronic heart failure in an elderly patient with spinal stenosis which led to the development of pain syndrome and movement disorders. For the treatment of neurological pathology, at the beginning epidural administration of drugs was applied, followed by spinal cord stimulation trial and implantation of permanent neurostimulator. At each stage of treatment conducted by a functional neurosurgeon the patient had a spontaneous restoration of sinus rhythm, and during continuous neurostimulation a stable retention of sinus rhythm and regression of heart failure symptoms have been observed throughout a long observation period. The article also presents the data of a few experimental and clinical studies on the use of neuromodulation in cardiology, describes the method of implantation of spinal electrodes and analyzes possible mechanisms of modulation of the autonomic innervation of the heart, implemented by spinal cord stimulation.
