چکیده

We report the case of a patient followed since childhood for congenital complete atrioventricular block. At 28 years of age, atrioventricular conduction through an accessory pathway with long conduction times was detected. Periods of atrioventricular conduction alternated with periods of atrioventricular block. Sinus tachycardia and 1:1 exclusive conduction through the accessory pathway developed with increased sympathic activity (exercise, isoproterenol infusion). We discuss the special features of this case.

1:1 atrioventricular conduction in congenital complete heart block.

A female neonate with congenital complete heart block developed atrioventricular conduction through an accessory pathway. Despite sinus rhythm and an adequate heart rate she developed severe dilated cardiomyopathy and died at age 14 months. This case illustrates that underlying heart block can be present in individuals with asymptomatic Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and that the dilated cardio...

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (type A) complicated by heart block in both normal and accessory pathways.

A 67-year-old man with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome type A presented with second degree atrioventricular block in anomalous pathway and complete infra-Hisian block in the His-Purkinje pathway. He had increasingly frequent attacks of dizziness not related to exercise. A permanent ventricular demand pacemaker was successfully implanted following intracardiac electrophysiological studies.

Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome — Causes, ECG and Treatment

Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (WPW) is a term referring to Louis Wolff who published an article in 1930 that describes 11 patients suffering from episodes of tachycardia with characteristic ECG findings (ECG pattern shows bundle branch block and shortened P-R interval). In 1943, anatomical accessory pathway of conducting tissue has been described that bypasses the atrioventricular (AV) conduct...
