Disease or Syndrome
Progressive familial heart block type II (PFHB2) is an autosomal dominant disorder, similar to type I progressive familial heart block (PFHB1; see 113900). The pattern of PFHB2, however, tends to develop along the lines of a sinus bradycardia with a left posterior hemiblock, presenting clinically as syncopal episodes, Stokes-Adams seizures, or sudden death when complete heart block supervenes (Brink and Torrington, 1977).
