[Incidence of hyperuricemia in atrioventricular block. Systematic study of 158 cases which required implantation of an isotopic cardiac pacemaker].

This is a study of 158 patients in whom the placement of an isotopic cardiac pacemaker was indicated; this procedure was carried out Broussais Hospital between 1970 and 1975. These patients, whose mean age was 39 (84 males, 47 females, 12 young men and 15 young women) were examined for uricaemia, and the levels compared with the mean for control population. The results were as follows: 91% had uricaemia at a level higher than the controls. Of these, 61% had uricaemia above 70 mg/l in the men and youths of over 15 years of age, and above 60 mg/l in the women and 50 mg/l in the adolescents. The highest uric acid levels were found in adults with post-operative atrio-ventricular block following surgical correction of a congenital cardiac abnormality, and also in children and adolescence with block which appeared to be congenital.
