Abstract
Third‐degree atrioventricular block has been well documented during ventricular catheterization of patients with underlying conduction abnormalities. Two cases reported here describe patients with normal conduction at baseline who sustained complete heart block during ventricular catheterization. Catheterizing physicians should be aware of this risk, which has not been previously reported.
