Lyme disease may present with a variety of cardiac manifestations ranging from first degree to third degree heart block. Cardiac involvement with Lyme disease may be asymptomatic, or symptomatic. Atrioventrical conduction abnormalities are the most common manifestation of Lyme carditis. Less common, are alternating right bundle branch block (RBBB) and left bundle branch block (LBBB). We present an interesting case of a young male whose main manifestation of Lyme carditis was isolated LBBB. He also had mild Lyme myocarditis. The patient was successfully treated with oral doxycycline, and his isolated LBBB and myocarditis rapidly resolved.
莱姆病可能会出现从一度到三度心脏传导阻滞等多种心脏表现。莱姆病累及心脏可能无症状,也可能有症状。房室传导异常是莱姆病心脏炎最常见的表现。不太常见的是交替性右束支传导阻滞(RBBB)和左束支传导阻滞(LBBB)。我们报告一例有趣的年轻男性病例,其莱姆病心脏炎的主要表现为孤立性左束支传导阻滞。他还患有轻度莱姆病心肌炎。该患者口服强力霉素治疗成功,其孤立性左束支传导阻滞和心肌炎迅速缓解。
