  • Title: Left bundle branch block in infants with dilated cardiomyopathy conveys a poor prognosis.
    Author: Cnota JF, Samson RA.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 1999 Jan; 9(1):55-7. PubMed ID: 10323539.
    Abstract:
    We describe three infants <3 months of age seen consecutively with dilated cardiomyopathy who presented initially with left bundle branch block on the surface 12-lead electrocardiogram. Each infant subsequently had a poor outcome: two died and one required heart transplantation. These results suggest that the presence of left bundle branch block on the 12-lead electrocardiogram conveys a poor prognosis in infants with dilated cardiomyopathy.
