Abstract

Electrical injury may lead to a conduction disorder of the heart. We report here on a 36-year-old man, who was treated with a permanent pacemaker, after an electrical injury induced high-degree atrioventricular block and clinical manifestations (dizziness and dyspnea).

Keywords: Electric injuries, Heart conduction system
