We describe the case of a young patient with runs of repetitive monomorphic left ventricular tachycardia. He was diagnosed with verapamil-sensitive, idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia (ILVT) and underwent an electrophysiological study, in which dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal physiology was evident, with an AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) being easily and reproducibly induced. Both the AVNRT and the ILVT were successfully ablated using high-density electroanatomical mapping and an open-irrigation catheter. In conclusion, verapamil-sensitive ILVT might coexist with AVNRT. In case of invasive therapy, a thorough electrophysiological evaluation is mandatory to exclude or treat other co-existing reentrant supraventricular arrhythmias.
我们描述了一例年轻患者反复发作的单形性左室性心动过速。该患者被诊断为维拉帕米敏感型特发性左室性心动过速(ILVT),并接受了电生理研究,该研究显示存在双房室(AV)结生理,容易且可重复地诱发房室结折返性心动过速(AVNRT)。使用高密度电解剖标测和开放式灌流导管成功消融了 AVNRT 和 ILVT。总之,维拉帕米敏感型 ILVT 可能与 AVNRT 共存。在进行有创治疗时,必须进行彻底的电生理评估,以排除或治疗其他共存的折返性室上性心律失常。
