Atrio‐ventricular block and takotsubo syndrome: A review illustrated with two case reports

Abstract Takotsubo syndrome (TS) can be complicated by life‐threatening arrhythmias. Data on the association of AV‐block, pacemaker implantation, and TS are scarce. We describe two cases of AV‐block associated with TS. AV‐block persisted despite the recovery of left ventricular dysfunction during fo...
