We describe the case of a patient who has a right atrial tachycardia and atrial fibrillation who was found to have a single site responsible for both. We recorded a tachycardia from this site with exit block into the remainder of the atria.
We report a patient with symptomatic AV block associated with conduction solely through an atriofascicular pathway that inserted into the left bundle branch. There was no apparent conduction present through the AV node. There was, however, passive activation through the His-Purkinje system. His-bundle pacing demonstrated normal conduction through both right and left bundles. This is the first report of such a case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
