Abstract
Exercise-induced complete right bundle branch block (CRBBB) remains a rare finding during a treadmill test. Both exercise-induced CRBBB and left anterior fascicular block (LAFB) have been associated with coronary artery disease, more specifically with stenosis of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Left septal fascicular block (LSFB) has been associated with acute and chronic coronary syndromes. We describe a patient case with severe left main coronary artery disease. In an exercise test, a rare combination of these three ventricular conduction disorders developed. In a second exercise test after coronary bypass surgery, LAFB and typical CRBBB developed without LSFB.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electrocardiology is devoted exclusively to clinical and experimental studies of the electrical activities of the heart. It seeks to contribute significantly to the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis and the effective treatment, prevention, or delay of heart disease. Editorial contents include electrocardiography, vectorcardiography, arrhythmias, membrane action potential, cardiac pacing, monitoring defibrillation, instrumentation, drug effects, and computer applications.
