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

چکیده
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 nodal reentrant tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricular outflow tract, and left ventricular tachycardia) in the other. Both patients underwent successful radiofrequency ablation of all the types of tachycardia.

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 ...
متن کاملFast 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...

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...
متن کاملPatients with two types of atrioventricular junctional (AV nodal) reentrant tachycardia. Evidence that a common pathway of nodal tissue is not present above the reentrant circuit.
BACKGROUND The site of the reentrant circuit in atrioventricular (AV) junctional reentrant tachycardia has not been defined; in particular, the existence of a common pathway of AV nodal tissue above the reentrant circuit is controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS Two types of AV junctional reentrant tachycardia were induced in each of three patients at electrophysiological study. In one type of ta...
متن کاملAtrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia in a Patient with Superior- Inferior Ventricles and Dextrocardia Treated with Cryoablation
A 19-year-old female underwent repair of complex congenital heart disease (atrial and ventricular septal defect with a supero-inferior ventricular relationship) in infancy. Because of recurrent palpitations she underwent an electrophysiology study. Atypical atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia was diagnosed. Catheter ablation was performed successfully using cryothermal energy. The diag...
