Overview

Many conditions can cause third degree heart block, but the most common cause is coronary ischemia. Progressive degeneration of the electrical conduction system of the heart can lead to third degree heart block. In addition, acute myocardial infarction may present with third degree AV block.
Third degree heart block may also be congenital and has been linked to the presence of lupus in the mother. The cause of congenital third degree heart block in many patients is unknown.

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Third degree heart block is a life-threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the causes. Life-threatening conditions can result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
