Approximate Synonyms
  • Bilateral bundle branch block
  • Bilateral bundle branch block (heart rhythm condition)
  • Heart block
  • Right bundle branch block and left anterior fascicular
  • Right bundle branch block and left anterior fascicular block
  • Right bundle branch block and left posterior fascicular block
Clinical Information
  • An electrocardiographic finding comprising right bundle branch block and left anterior fascicular block, or right bundle branch block and left posterior fascicular block. Defects occuring in two of the three divisions of the conduction system of the heart are considered bifascicular blocks. Technically left bundle branch block may be considered a bifascicular block.
