A case of reversible third-degree AV block due to Lyme carditis

摘要

The most common manifestation of Lyme carditis is a varying degree of atrioventricular (AV) conduction block. This case describes a 45-year-old male with third-degree AV block due to Lyme carditis. Treatment with intravenous antibiotics resulted in complete normalization of AV conduction, thereby averting permanent pacemaker implantation. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
