Exercise-induced atrioventricular (AV) block in patients with normal AV conduction at rest is rare. Herein, we describe the case of a 67-year-old woman with normal 1 : 1 AV conduction at rest, who developed complete AV block during a treadmill test. Our patient complained of effort-related dizziness and dyspnea, which had been ongoing for 3 months. The patient's physical examination was normal....

Second-degree atrioventricular (AV) nodal block with 2:1 AV conduction during atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) has been previously described. We report a patient who developed AVNRT during which 3:1 intra-infra-Hisian block due to catheter manipulation was observed. This was followed by gradual, incremental recovery of AV conduction. AVNRT accounts for approximately 50% of c...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Permanent His-bundle pacing is effective in patients with supra-Hisian atrioventricular block. We report our experience in patients with infra-Hisian atrioventricular block. METHODS The study involved selected patients referred for syncope and intraventricular conduction disturbance, infra-Hisian atrioventricular block, with left ventricular dyssynchrony and no cor...
