Down syndrome occurs more frequently in the offsprings of older pregnant women and may be associated with atrioventricular septal defect. This refers to a broad spectrum of malformations characterized by a deficiency of the atrioventricular septum and abnormalities of the atrioventricular valves caused by an abnormal fusion of the superior and inferior endocardial cushions with the midportion of the atrial septum and the muscular portion of the ventricular septum.

Left posterior fascicular block (LPFB) is a rare intraventricular conduction disorder of rare occurrence, especially as an isolated entity. Its transient form is even rarer and maybe rate-independent or rate-dependent intermittent LPFB (phase 3 block, tachycardia-dependent and phase 4 block or bradycardia-dependent). We present a case of a young adult male whose baseline ECG/VCG showed the typical LPFB pattern.

We analyzed the VCGs of 100 young subjects without apparent cardiac disease showing an ECG superior Axis Deviation, i.e. AQRS greater than - 30 degrees, and a rS aspect in V1.
