OBJECTIVE: This is the first case report of a second-degree heart block (Mobitz Type I) described in a patient with anorexia nervosa (AN). METHOD: We present the case of a 20-year-old woman with AN and second-degree heart block. Pertinent reports in the literature regarding atrioventricular conduction abnormalities as well as cardiac rhythm disturbances are reviewed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Although this patient's second-degree heart block may represent an intrinsic conduction abnormality unrelated to her AN, the importance of the validation of medical conditions during the treatment of AN is discussed.
