Abstract

The significance of infra-His conduction abnormalities observed in the electrophysiology lab can be difficult to assess. In this report we show infra-His conduction block during programmed atrial stimulation in a patient and discuss if this should be considered functional or pathological.

Keywords: Infra-His block; atrioventricular block.
