An unusual cause of heart failure in a young man.

Abstract:

:A 21year old gentleman was admitted with shortness of breath and heart failure. He was noted to have incessant supraventricular tachycardia which was refractory to pharmacological and electrical cardioversion. Electrophysiology study revealed focal atrial tachycardia from an unusual location which was successfully ablated.
