Abstract
Late onset of complete heart block is a life-threatening uncommon complication after surgical repair of congenital heart diseases. In this report, we discuss two cases of Perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) that had late presentation of complete heart block after surgical repair. We are aiming to highlight this unusual complication for more awareness, better understanding and management of this unusual complication after pediatric cardiac surgery.
