Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a rapidly growing procedure. Conduction disease post‐TAVR is frequent and routinely monitored for periprocedurally. Permanent pacemaker placement is relatively common and usually associated with worse outcomes post‐TAVR. We report a case of very late presenting complete heart block post‐TAVR treated with His‐bundle pacing. Our case underscores the need for larger studies to further evaluate the utility of long‐term cardiac monitoring post‐TAVR and outcomes of His‐bundle pacing in this population.
