چکیده

A woman of 18 presented with a supraventricular tachycardia, subsequently shown to be caused by atrioventricular nodal reentry, which abruptly deteriorated to a multiform ventricular tachycardia. She had not received any antiarrhythmic drugs nor did she have any of the disorders that are usually associated with this atypical ventricular tachycardia.

Fast pathway ablation in patients with common atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and prolonged PR interval during sinus rhythm.

AIMS This study aimed to clarify the safety and efficacy of selective fast pathway ablation in patients with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and a prolonged PR interval during sinus rhythm. Such patients have been reported to have an increased incidence of complete atrioventricular block. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, the earliest retrograde atrial activation during atrioven...

Sympathetic predominance of cardiac autonomic regulation in patients with left free wall accessory pathway and orthodromic atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia.

AIMS The aim of this study was to compare cardiac autonomic regulation in patients with a history of paroxysmal supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, such as atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, and healthy controls. METHODS AND RESULTS Seventeen patients with paroxysmal atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (atrioventricular nodal reent...

Concomitant Wolff-Parkinson-White and Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia: Which Pathway to Ablate?

BACKGROUND Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common form of supraventricular tachycardia. In contrast, Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) pattern consists of an accessory pathway, which may result in the development of ventricular arrhythmias. Frequent tachycardia caused by AVNRT and accessory pathways may play a role in left ventricular systolic dysfunction. CASE REPO...

Two unusual cases of coincident atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and ventricular tachycardia.

The simultaneous occurrence of narrow and wide QRS complex tachycardias was observed in 2 patients evaluated at our electrophysiological centers. Electrophysiological testing revealed the coexistence of two types of arrhythmia (atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and verapamil-sensitive left ventricular tachycardia) in one patient and of three types of arrhythmia (atrioventricular noda...

Catecholamine-dependent atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia.

An unusual case of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia precipitated by ethanol ingestion is presented. Programmed atrial and ventricular stimulation failed to induce the tachycardia during control conditions or after atropine administration. This failure to induce tachycardia was related to the absence of ventriculoatrial conduction. A low-dose isoproterenol infusion allowed induction ...
