AI Article Synopsis

  • Short RP interval atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardias (AVRTs) usually don't appear in a continuous form.
  • Two cases of relentless AVRTs were identified in middle-aged adults, causing tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy and severe heart failure.
  • Both patients underwent successful accessory pathway ablation and regained normal left ventricular function before being discharged from the hospital.

Article Abstract

Short RP interval atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardias do not typically present as an incessant form. We present 2 cases of incessant atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardias leading to tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy with severe heart failure presentation in middle-aged adults. Both underwent accessory pathway ablation and recovered normal left ventricle function before hospital discharge. ().
