Complete heart block as a complication of varicella.

J A Ettedgui, E Ladusans, M Bamford.   

Abstract

A case of varicella myocarditis complicated by permanent complete heart block requiring treatment with a permanent pacemaker is presented. Antiviral therapy with Acyclovir from the moment of presentation had no effect on the course of the heart block, but may have induced recovery of myocardial contractile dysfunction.
