Implication

Adds histopathological support for congenital heart block; leaves open mechanistic role of central fibrous body and requires larger confirmatory studies.

Population

2 cases of congenital heart block

Intervention

Comprehensive serial section study of the conduction systems

Outcome

Anatomical findings of the conduction systemsurrogate

Congenital heart block is associated with disruption of the penetrating portion of the A-V bundle, potentially related to abnormalities in the central fibrous body or pars membranacea.
