Incessant Atrial Tachycardia and a Cerebral Tumor
A 78-year-old woman with no history of heart disease or any other pathological process was seen in the outpatient clinic for a routine check-up. Cardiac arrhythmia was detected at this visit and she was referred to our center. The patient was completely asymptomatic and the physical examination was unremarkable. The only evaluable cardiologic feature was a relatively rapid and irregular pulse r...
متن کامل[Incessant atrial tachycardia and a cerebral tumor].
We report the case of an asymptomatic 78-year-old woman in whom incessant atrial tachycardia refractory to many pharmacological treatments appeared. Months after the appearance of atrial tachycardia, clinical neurological symptoms of a cerebral cystic tumor appeared. Treatment of the tumor resolved the rhythm disorder.
متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation in a Patient with Tachycardiomyopathy due to Incessant Fascicular Tachycardia
Fascicular tachycardia (FT) arising from the left posterior fascicle, one of the most common forms of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT), is considered benign. Herein is presented our experience of a 25-year-old man presenting with palpitation, dyspnea and dilated cardiomyopathy due to drug-refractory FT who was successfully treated with radiofrequency catheter ablation. Echocardiography s...
متن کاملFocal atrial tachycardia.
Focal atrial tachycardia is a relatively uncommon arrhythmia. Nevertheless, the management of highly symptomatic patients with focal atrial tachycardia can be problematic owing to the poor response to medical treatment. Moreover, focal atrial tachycardia can trigger other atrial arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation and flutter. Radiofrequency ablation of focal atrial tachycardia is extremely su...
متن کاملTachycardia-induced Cardiomyopathy (Tachycardiomyopathy)
The term tachycardia-induced cardio-myopathy or tachycardiomyopathy refers to impairment in left ventricular function secondary to chronic tachycardia, which is partially or completely reversible once the tachyarrhythmia is controlled. Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy has been shown to occur both in experimental models and in patients with incessant tachyarrhythmia. Data from several studies ...
