Journal Article
[Pulmonary embolism and complete atrioventricular block].
Journal de Médecine Vasculaire 2018 December
Complete atrioventricular block is a rare complication of pulmonary embolism. We describe the case of a black African patient, aged 42 years, who presented to the emergency department of Abidjan Heart Institute for sudden onset dyspnea and hemoptysis. ECG revealed a third degree atrioventricular block. Computed tomographic angiography showed proximal pulmonary embolism of the right main pulmonary artery. To our knowledge, this is the first case of complete atrioventricular block in pulmonary embolism in Sub-Saharan Africa. In case of pulmonary embolism, clinical and electrocardiographic monitoring is necessary in order to identify this uncommon and potentially serious outcome.
