Symptomatic atrial bigeminy masquerading as congenital complete heart block

Newborn male with symptomatic bradycardia initially diagnosed with complete atrioventricular block. Isoproterenol drip was initiated, and the patient was scheduled for pacemaker implantation. During the hospital course, repeat electrocardiogram and Holter monitor revealed evidence of near continuous blocked atrial bigeminy with occasional aberrantly conducted premature atrial contractions. Flecainide was started, resulting in normal sinus rhythm, and the pacemaker implantation was cancelled.
