Case Report
A patient with J-point elevation and AV complete block presenting with recurrent syncope attacks
Abstract
J point elevation, although mostly benign, has a spectrum that can lead to arrhythmias and can be mortal enough to cause sudden cardiac death. The arrhythmias seen in patients are frequently ventricular arrhythmias. In the literature, there are very few cases of complete atrio-ventricular block with J point elevation. Here, we present a case with j point elevation with syncope attacks and complete AV complete block.

Keywords : J point elevation, atrio-ventricular block, ventricular tachycardia
