Uncommon Presentation of a Common Tachycardia

We describe a patient with an implanted pacemaker for impaired AV conduction who presented with an incessant tachycardia. EP study showed that the tachycardia was atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with repeated spontaneous initiation because of poor or absent antegrade fast pathwa...

description We describe a patient with an implanted pacemaker for impaired AV conduction who presented with an incessant tachycardia. EP study showed that the tachycardia was atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with repeated spontaneous initiation because of poor or absent antegrade fast pathway conduction. Slow pathway ablation was successful in terminating the tachycardia and making it non-inducible.
