摘要
Twelve patients with a new complete bundle branch block after coronary artery bypass grafting underwent transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE). The results of TEE were compared with the pre-operative ventriculography, CK-MB isoenzyme time-release curves and clinical course. In eight patients with transient right bundle branch block or bifascicular block, low CK-MB activities and an uncomplicated postoperative course, transoesophageal echocardiography showed no new segmental wall motion abnormalities apart from a paradoxical septal movement in five. A persistent right or left bundle branch block was associated with either elevated isoenzyme activities, transoesophageal echocardiographic evidence of new segmental wall motion disturbance or both in fourpatients. One patient died because of fatal arrhythmia and one suffered from a prolonged low cardiac output syndrome. A transient bundle branch block is usually a benign electrocardiographic finding. In case of a persistent bundle branch block associated with elevated CK MB isoenzymes, new left ventricular wall motion disturbances indicating a peri-operative myocardial injury are easily detected by transoesophageal echocardiography. © 1990 The European Society of Cardiology.
