      In this issue of HeartRhythm is a very interesting article by Ragupathi et al, who describe the natural history of patients with putative intrahisian atrioventricular (AV) block. The authors have nicely shown that although these patients often present with traumatic and very worrisome syncopal episodes, they seem to have a very low incidence of progression to complete AV block.
