Abstract

We are reporting a case of complete atrio-ventricular block following radiotherapy; this diagnosis was made after ruling out other etiologies. In relation with this case, we are discussing the different rhythm complications of radiotherapy. Therefore, we are presenting tissue involvements, revealed either by minimal electrocardiographic alterations, or by rhythm or conduction disorders, insisting on atrio-ventricular blocks. Finally, we are insisting on a recent disease, cardiac pacemaker dysfunctions, induced by radiotherapy, from in vitro studies and clinical cases.
