Sinoatrial Blocks in Hyperthyroidism Treated with Beta-Blockers: A Case of Paradoxical Treatment

<p>We describe an interesting case of a 52 year-old patient affected by thyrotoxicosis crisis, in whom sinoatrial blocks were associated with syncope and treated effi ciently with beta-blockers.</p><p>We hypothesized the Bezold-Jarisch refl ex as the mechanism which leads to bradyc...
