Bifascicular block is a conduction abnormality in the heart where two of the three main of the His/Purkinje system are blocked.

Most commonly, it refers to a combination of right bundle branch block (RBBB) and either left anterior fascicular block (LAFB) or left posterior fascicular block (LPFB), with the former being more common.

Some authors consider left bundle branch block (LBBB) to be a technical bifascicular block, since the block occurs above the of the left anterior and left posterior fascicles of the left bundle branch.

In those with bifascicular block and no symptoms, little with respect to treatment is needed. In those with syncope, a pacemaker is recommended.
