An 84-year-old male had experienced palpitations. He was transported to our hospital for treatment of palpitations. A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) showed regular tachycardia with a wide QRS complex of 153 bpm, and the P wave was not clear. The ECG after the tachycardia stopped showed a sinus rhythm, and there was a prolonged PR interval of 312 ms and complete right bundle branch block. We recorded a prolonged AH interval (235 ms) in electrophysiology study (EPS). As for the St-A interval (185 ms) by consecutive pacing from the right ventricular apex, it was short in comparison with the anterograde conduction. As a result of detailed EPS, we diagnosed the tachycardia as slow-fast atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. The anterograde conduction depended on the slow pathway (SP), and the fast pathway (FP) was considered to have only retrograde conduction. It was thought that a complete atrioventricular block been caused by the SP ablation. Therefore we carried out FP ablation with three-dimensional computed tomography and the EnSite NavX mapping system (St. Jude Medical, St Paul, MN, USA), which was superior in space resolution power, and were able to effect a radical cure without complications.
一名84岁男性曾经历心悸。他被送往我院治疗心悸。12导联心电图(ECG)显示规则性心动过速,QRS波群增宽,心率为153次/分,P波不清晰。心动过速终止后的心电图显示窦性心律,PR间期延长至312毫秒,并有完全性右束支传导阻滞。在电生理研究(EPS)中,我们记录到AH间期延长(235毫秒)。从右心室心尖部连续起搏时,St-A间期(185毫秒)与前向传导相比缩短。经过详细的EPS检查,我们将该心动过速诊断为慢-快型房室结折返性心动过速。前向传导依赖于慢径路(SP),快径路(FP)仅被认为有逆向传导。认为SP消融导致了完全性房室传导阻滞。因此,我们使用空间分辨率更高的三维计算机断层扫描和EnSite NavX标测系统(美国明尼苏达州圣保罗市圣犹达医疗公司)进行FP消融,得以实现根治且无并发症。
