[Junctional reciprocating tachycardia with second degree A-V block (author's transl)]
Summary
This study presents two cases of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) caused by atrioventricular junctional reentry. Electrophysiological studies revealed specific block patterns, aiding discussion on reentry circuit involvement.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Electrophysiology
Background:
- Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) is a common arrhythmia.
- Atrioventricular junctional reentry is a known mechanism for PSVT.
