Unusual Tachycardia Association In A patient Without Structural Heart Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report an unusual association of persistent atrial flutter and bundle branch re-entrant ventricular tachycardia in a young patient without structural heart disease. Atrial flutter masked the infra-Hisian conduction disease, was fundamentally dependent on a long PR interval, and could be a possible trigger of ventricular tachycardia.

متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia in Patients Without Structural Heart Disease
Background. Radiofrequency energy has been used safely and successfully to eliminate accessory pathways in patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and the substrate for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. However, this form of ablation has had only limited success in eliminating ventricular tachycardia in patients with structural heart disease. In contrast, direct-current cat...
متن کاملVentricular tachycardia in patients without structural heart disease.
The existence of ventricular tachycardia in subjects without detectable heart disease has been recognized for more than half a century. These rhythms occur in younger individuals and account for about 5% of referrals to the electrophysiology service. In contrast, ventricular tachycardia in the setting of chronic ischemic heart disease occurs in an older age group and accounts for more than 90% ...

Background: Arrhythmias in neonates are not common and usually affect newborns with a normal heart or those that suffer from structural heart disease. A malignant type of arrhythmias is supraventricular tachycardia. Meanwhile, one uncommon type of supraventricular arrhythmias is atrial flutter (AFL), which is founded upon reentry mechanisms in the atrium. The AFL may result in heart failure or ...
