The ECG appearances of His bundle pathology are very variable and endocavitory recordings are often required to confirm the diagnosis which may be suspected by close analysis of the surface ECG. Truncular AVB is a serious condition as the block is infranodal but with a supraventricular and therefore a narrow QRS complex: it may be median with a double His potential or proximal and distal, which are more difficult to diagnose. Hisian extrasystoles are particularly polymorphic, either overtly, suggesting successively atrial and ventricular extrasystoles, or masked with deceptive pseudo-1st or 2nd degree atrioventricular block. More rarely, hisian tachycardias complicating congenital heart disease in children are observed, particularly in the postoperative period.
