Abstrakt: The association of spontaneous complete heart block and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is rare. We have studied three patients of the same family, two brothers and one nephew, ages 19-41 years, with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy confirmed by hemodynamic and angiographic studies. All patients were treated with permanent cardiac pacemaker implant. They are asymptomatic, aging 33 to 55 years, with follow-up of 157 to 176 months after the onset of the heart block.
