Abstract
AV nodal reentry capable of VA block during tachycardia was successful ly eliminated using a posteroseptal ablation pulse delivered well away from the site of earliest atrial activation during tachycardia. A pos sible explanation is that the arrhythmia represented typical AV nodal reentrant tachycardia with transient intra-atrial conduction block dur ing tachycardia.
