Complete Atrioventricular

Sixty-five patients with congenital complete atrioventricular block have been studied. The median age at time of diagnosis was 7 months with 26 infants being diagnosed prior to 1 month of age. Anatomic heart disease was present in 25/65 (39%) infants, with ventricular inversion/L-transposition of great arteries complex occurring in 20/25 infants (80%). The site of block was above the bundle of His in 11 of 18 (61%) patients studied, in the bundle of His in three of 18 (17%), and below the bundle of His in two of 18 (11%). Permanent pacemakers were implanted in 17 (26%). Ten patients (15%) have died. The highest risk was in patients with anatomic heart disease and patients diagnosed early in life.

Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder among hospitalized patients and in the clinical setting. Patients with hyponatremia may develop a variety of symptoms, primarily neurological and gastrointestinal. Hyponatremia is more frequently encountered in patients with an underlying heart disease, particularly in the elderly. We hereby present a case of complete atrioventricular block in an elderly patient who had undergone aortic valve replacement and had been using thiazide. Complete atrioventricular block improved after sodium replacement therapy and no other cause of electrolyte disorder was documented.
