Hydatid cyst of interventricular septum causing left anterior hemiblock.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A case is reported of left anterior hemiblock and right bundle-branch block produced by a hydatid cyst of the interventricular septum. The electrocardiographic changes are attributed to the great distortion produced by the cystic mass in the septum, with elongation of the right and left anterior bundles. The depth of the S waves in leads II, III, and aVF is in close relation with the degree of left anterior hemiblock.
