Non-ischemic Painful Intermittent Left Bundle Branch Block With Infra-Hisian Block Treated Successfully With Biventricular Pacemaker: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Non-ischemic painful left bundle branch block (LBBB) is defined as chest pain that occurs simultaneously with the appearance of left bundle branch block and resolves with the disappearance of the left bundle branch block in patients without evidence of myocardial ischemia. The underlying mechanism of this rare clinical occurrence has not been fully understood, but it has been proposed that it results from ventricular dyssynchrony. In this case report, we present a 65-year-old male with non-ischemic chest pain who was found to have intermittent left bundle branch block (ILBBB) with infra-Hisian conduction delay, treated successfully with a biventricular pacemaker. After excluding the presence of angiographic coronary artery disease, an electrophysiology study was conducted to direct the management and investigate other causes of chest pain. The present study highlights the importance of obtaining electrophysiology studies in patients with painful left bundle branch block with no angiographic evidence of coronary artery disease to diagnose this uncommon syndrome.
