Surgically corrected Ebstein anomaly can be complicated years later by late-onset third-degree atrioventricular block, requiring routine monitoring and an epicardial permanent pacemaker.
Highlights the importance of routine cardiac monitoring for late-onset third-degree AV block in adults with surgically corrected Ebstein anomaly.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
ABSTRACT Late‐onset third‐degree atrioventricular (AV) block is a rare life‐threatening complication that may develop years after surgical correction of Ebstein anomaly. Effective management depends on routine cardiac monitoring and timely intervention with an epicardial permanent pacemaker.
