title: Infrequent syncope in a heavy vehicle driver.
abstract: We present a case study of a truck driver with sinus node dysfunction diagnosed with the help of an implantable loop recorder more than 18 months after implantation. This case emphasizes that cardiogenic syncope may be very infrequent and its diagnosis can be elusive despite extensive testing.
