Atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and results of radiofrequency catheter ablation.
BACKGROUND We sought to investigate the feasibility of radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia and the ideal site for slow pathway (SP) ablation in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries. METHODS AND RESULTS Nine patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries referred for catheter ablation of atrioventricula...
متن کاملIncessant bundle branch reentrant ventricular tachycardia in a patient with corrected transposition of the great arteries
Introduction Bundle branch reentrant tachycardia (BBRT) is an uncommon but clinically relevant macroreentrant ventricular tachycardia (VT) involving an impaired His–Purkinje system and the ventricle as a reentrant circuit. BBRT is commonly associated with structural heart diseases, including cardiomyopathy, old myocardial infarction, valvular disease, and myotonic dystrophy. Patients with conge...
متن کاملPediatric Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation: Results of Initial 100 Consecutive Cases Including Congenital Heart Anomalies
Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has recently become a management option for pediatric tachycardia. We reviewed the records of a total of 100 patients (aged 10 months to 19 yr) who had undergone RFCA, from March 2000 to June 2004. Types of arrhythmia (age, acute success rate) were as follows: atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT, 9.0+/-3.7 yr, 66/67), atrioventricular nodal reent...
متن کاملUnusual Atrioventricular Reentry Tachycardia in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Great Arteries: A Novel Site for Catheter Ablation.
Presentation A 19-year-old male with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA; S, L, L–situs solitus, l-loop, l-transposition) presented with recurrent frequent palpitations, fatigue, and effort intolerance. Previous history was significant for initial presentation with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) at the age of 14 years. Transthoracic echocardiography at that tim...
متن کاملSuccessful catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries after double switch operation
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) may cause sudden death late after repair of congenital heart disease. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (CA) of VT can be effective but may be hampered by hypertrophied myocardium or prosthetic material. A 33-year-old man with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) had undergone a double switch operation (DSO) with the combined Mustard and...
