Abstract

Simultaneous development of atrioventricular (AV) blockade and Wolf–Parkinson–White syndrome (WPW) are described extremely rarely and mainly in adults. A few observations have shown the appearance of A-B blockade against the background of the already existing permanent form of premature ventricular excitation (WPW). We have described a case of simultaneous primary development of the WPW phenomenon and complete A-B blockade in a child with severe systemic disease after undergoing COVID-19.
