Cryosurgical Modification of the Atrioventricular Node for Treatment of Atrioventricular Junctional Reentrant Tachycardia

Perin, Emerson C.
RESUMO
Surgical correction of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia with preservation of atrioventricular nodal conduction in a 28-year-old woman is reported. At surgery, electrophysiologic mapping techniques were used during tachycardia to reveal and enable ablation of the appropriate site of atrial activation. Postoperative electrophysiologic studies indicated successful atrioventricular nodal modification. (Texas Heart Institute Journal 1991; 18:72-5)
