Souilmi FZ, Atmani S, Chaouki S and Hida M

First degree Atrio Ventricular (AV) block is a common manifestation of acute Rheumatic Fever (RF) and is included in the Jones criteria but Wenckebacks phenomena and complete heart block are rarely described in the RF. Presyncope occurring in RF was rarely reported. We report the case of a young 14 years old boy with rheumatic heart disease revealed by presyncope due to an third degree AV block. Rapid improvement was obtained under corticosteroids.
