Transient right bundle branch block in a patient with acute pulmonary embolism.

We report the case of an 86-year-old man found at home with acute chest pain and dyspnea. He presented some episodes of left chest pain combined with dyspnea. The physical examination revealed crackling sounds on the bases of the lungs without other anomalies. Electrocardiograms revealed a transient and complete right bundle branch block with inverted T waves in leads V1, V2, and V3. He was diagnosed with a proximal bilateral acute pulmonary embolism without acute cor pulmonale. We describe a case of a transient bundle branch block, without tachycardia or acute cor pulmonale, revealing a pulmonary embolism.
