Pediatric RBBB

Dear Dr.

My child who is nine years old, was recently diagnosed with Right Bundle Branch Block.  My question is:  How would she have developed this?  And is this life threating?  She does play sports in school and I was just wondering how this would effect this?

Thank you.

The origin of the pediatric RBBB, is congenital, without origin cause.
Generally,it doesn´t have  threating,only controll with a pediatric cardiologist.
So, because she will play sports in school,I recomend you again to consult a pediatric cardiologist.
Best regards.
