Reversible complete atrioventricular block in patient with wegener's granulomatosis - a report on fortunate outcome with long term follow-up. 
Reversible complete atrioventricular block in patient with Wegener's granulomatosis - a report on a positive outcome with long term follow-up.  Atrioventricular (AV) block is a rare complication of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG), thus there are no standards of management in such cases.  We present a case of a patient with a dual-chamber pacemaker (DDD) implanted due to complete AV block in the course of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG).  An immunosuppressive therapy resulted in the resolution of non-cardiac and AV conduction disorders.  The diagnostic functions of the pacemaker enabled us to evaluate AV conduction over a five-year follow-up period.  The resolution of AV conduction disorders, which accompanied WG remission, suggests that careful monitoring with temporary cardiac pacing may be considered in some patients before permanent pacemaker implantation.
