Incessant ventricular tachycardia
Among the side effects of adenosine, excitatory actions on ventricular automaticity enhanced by low concentrations of adenosine and the discharge of catecholamines are reported. The majority of adenosine-induced ventricular tachycardias (VTs) are rare, transient, not requiring further interventions and usually originate in the inferior left ventricular septum [1]. Since the coronary arteries sh...
متن کاملRapid suppression of flecainide-induced incessant ventricular tachycardia with high-dose intravenous amiodarone.
A severe case of flecainide-induced incessant ventricular arrhythmias is presented. These arrhythmias were resistant to various intravenous antiarrhythmic drugs and to cardiac pacing. Intravenous amiodarone administered over a short period and in a high dose strikingly abolished all ventricular arrhythmias.
متن کاملCardiomyopathy induced by incessant fascicular ventricular tachycardia.
A 12-year-old girl with symptoms of fatigue, decreased exercise tolerance and progressive dyspnea (New York Heart Association functional class III) with a possible diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy secondary to viral myocarditis. Because of incessant wide QRS tachycardia refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs, she was referred for electrophysiological study. The diagnosis was idiopathic left vent...
متن کاملIncessant left ventricular tachycardia of unusual etiology
Apart from Coronary artery disease, left ventricular tachycardia may result from cardiac sarcoidosis, left ventricular tumor, chagas disease and idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia. We report a rare case of incessant left ventricular tachycardia resulting from left dominant arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy.
