Abstract

In discussing a case of isolated A-V block, the authors note that this condition occurs frequently in association with other cardiac and non-cardiac foetal malformations. Diagnosis of this type of disorder has been greatly facilitated by the development of ultrasonography. Obstetric management depends on the degree of malformation. Neonatal monitoring is mandatory, as is the presence of a paediatric ressuscitation team at delivery.
