Abstract

Early and timely intervention can restore normal fetal heart rhythm in cases of high-grade atrioventricular block without structural abnormalities. However, the presence of complications like cardiomyopathy significantly worsens the prognosis, despite aggressive treatment. Multidisciplinary care and close monitoring are essential to optimize maternal and fetal outcomes.
