  • Title: [Disorders of sino-atrial and auriculo-ventricular conduction in Steinert's disease. Apropos of one case].
    Author: Meilhac B, Fleury G, Caspi G, d'Arcy FF, Heulin A, Di Matteo J.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1976 May; 69(5):547-52. PubMed ID: 821425.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of Steinert's disease with disordered sino-atrial and atrio-ventricular conduction. The presence of sudden syncopal attacks and the absence of a cardiomyopathy (excluded by right- and leftsided haemodynamic studies and coronary arteriography) indicated the insertion of a definitive intra-cavitary pacemaker, especially as the life expectancy of this 54 year old patient did not seem to have been significantly reduced by his disease.
