Third degree atrioventricular block and sudden death secondary to acute myocarditis in a dog

Third degree atrioventricular (AV) block in dogs is thought to be most frequently characterized by non-specific fibrotic changes in the AV node. However, it may occur secondary to an undiagnosed inflammatory process. We report a case of third degree AV block in a dog, secondary to acute lymphocytic-...

However, it may occur secondary to an undiagnosed inflammatory process. We report a case of third degree AV block in a dog, secondary to acute lymphocytic-plasmacytic myocarditis that resulted in sudden death. This dog had cardiac troponin I levels of 44.65 ng/mL (normal
