Abstract

We report a 13-year-old girl with epilepsy who experienced syncope after rapid weight loss due to an eating disorder. She developed a lethal (atrioventricular block) arrhythmia, which improved after weight gain. This case suggests that energy depletion might be involved in lethal arrhythmia.
