Multifocal disturbance of cardiac conduction system.
The group of 127 patients with pathological finding in cardiac conduction system revealed by electrophysiological invasive examination was evaluated with regard to localization of conduction disturbance. A single focus was observed in 70 patients, multifocal affection was found in 57 cases (45%). This finding is in agreement with literary data and thus the use of the term "disease of cardiac conduction system" is recommended in all cases where multifocal disturbance of conduction system is diagnosed.
