AN UNCOMMON CASE OF TYPICAL RECIPROCAL ATRIO-VENTRICULAR NODAL TACHYCARDIA
Abstract
A case of successful radiofrequency ablation of the typical atrio-ventricular nodal tachycardia with the «slow» pathway location behind the coronary sinus ostium in a patient with altered anterograde conduction through «fast» and «slow» pathways is presented.
