Left anterior fascicular block (LAFB) is an abnormal condition of the left ventricle of the heart,[1][2] related to, but distinguished from, left bundle branch block (LBBB).
It is caused by only the left anterior fascicle – one half of the left bundle branch being defective. It is manifested on the ECG by left axis deviation. It is much more common than left posterior fascicular block.
