Abstract

Peri- or postprocedural conduction disorders following transcatheter aortic valve implantation remain frequent, and identification of electrocardiogram predictors of postinterventional high-degree atrioventricular block is challenging. Here we present a case of paradoxical normalisation of QRS complex duration following transcatheter aortic valve implantation, suggesting a high risk for subsequent complete atrioventricular block.
