Jr. Rumoroso et al., EXERCISE-INDUCED ATRIOVENTRICULAR-BLOCK, THE ROLE OF ISCHEMIA - A REPORT OF 4 NEW CASES, Revista espanola de cardiologia, 50(4), 1997, pp. 278-282
We report four new cases of exercise-induced atrio-ventricular block (
appearing during treadmill exercise testing). The mechanism was ischem
ia in two patients and the conduction disturbance disappeared after co
ronary artery bypass grafting. The literature on this matter is review
ed. Also the etiology, the natural history and management are discusse
d in these cases.
