摘要:Left bundle branch block (LBBB) causes a delay in left ventricular contraction with an unsynchronized ventricular systole.LBBB is an independent determinant of morbi-mortality mainly when associated with cardiomyopathy and left ventricular dysfunction.[1] LBBB due to non-ischemic cardiomyopathy is considered non-reversible.Such irreversibility occurs because LBBB and cardiomyopathy act in a synergic manner in order to maintain both situations.However,there are a few reports in the literature showing that some patients have had an improvement in cardiac function with normalization of QRS and have experienced a reverse remodelling with pharmacological therapy only.[2-4]
