https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2025.92.32
Abstract
This article presents a clinical case of a patient with newly diagnosed Frederick's syndrome, in this case persistent atrial fibrillation and complete trifascicular block, including proximal complete AV block, anterior hemiblock, and complete right bundle branch block. The possible mechanism of development of this condition and the treatment provided at Regional Clinical Hospital No. 1 in Tyumen, Russian Federation, are discussed.
