ABSTRACT

Se presenta el caso de una familia con bloqueo aurículo-ventricular, que compromete varias generaciones, con herencia mendeliana autosómica dominante, que afecta de manera progresiva el sistema de conducción cardiaco llevando a síncope y muerte súbita en edades tempranas. Esta entidad corresponde al bloqueo familiar cardiaco progresivo tipo I, descrito principalmente en Suráfrica. El tratamiento con marcapaso definitivo fue exitoso.


We present the case of a family with atrio-ventricular block that involves several generations, with dominant autosomal mendelian inheritance that progressively affects the cardiac conduction system leading to syncope and sudden death in early life. This entity corresponds to progressive familial atrio-ventricular block type I, described mainly in South Africa. Treatment with permanent pacemaker therapy was successful.
