| Popis: | A 69-year-old woman was referred for asthenia and dizziness when walking in the last two months. No clinical abnormalities were found, and sinus rhythm was present when lying down. On orthostatism and walking, advanced AV block developed. Atropine and isoproterenol ameliorated the AV conduction abnormality, suggesting a nodal block. The patient remained asymptomatic after pacemaker implantation. |
