Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Narrow QRS tachycardia or premature beat with bystander atrial activation or ventricular-atrial dissociation is an unusual arrhythmia that can present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. When ventricular-atrial conduction is robust, these arrhythmias can be difficult to distinguish from atrioventricular nodal reentry. OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to describe the electrophysiology characteristics, diagnostic maneuvers, and treatment of these types of arrhythmias in a series of 7 cases. METHODS:Standard multipolar recording and pacing electrodes were used during electrophysiology studies. Catheter ablation was performed using radiofrequency or cryoenergy. RESULTS:During electrophysiology studies, ventricular-nodal or ventricular-Hisian conducting pathways were demonstrated to be responsible for the arrhythmias in all 7 cases. Successful ablation of these pathways using radiofrequency energy was accomplished in 6 of the 7 cases. CONCLUSION:Ventricular-Hisian and ventricular-nodal associated tachyarrhythmias should be distinguished from typical forms of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. Catheter ablation of these pathways can be successfully accomplished using mapping techniques described in our report.
