Abstract/OtherAbstract:
An asymptomatic 9-year-old boy presented with a slow heart rate and a structurally normal heart. He was detected to have complete atrioventricular block and fine atrial fibrillation that was not evident on the surface electrocardiogram. This case appears to be an unusual example of a disease of the cardiac conduction system presenting in childhood.
