title: [Pregnancy and the use of pacemakers].
abstract: We present a 19 year old patient with complete atrioventricular block, who had a permanent demand type pacemaker-implanted. Her pregnancy and labor were uneventful. There were no maternal nor neonatal complications. Since the association of pregnancy and pacemaker use is rare, we present our experience and management of the case.
