Abstract

Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia is a rare type of supraventricular tachycardia. Incessant tachycardia may result in dilated cardiomyopathy and the patients may have a diagnosis of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. A 53-day-old female infant was brought to the hospital with sweating, rapid breathing, and rapid heartbeat. She was admitted to the intensive care unit with a suspicion of myocarditis. Electrocardiography showed a heart rate of 220/min consistent with narrow QRS complex tachycardia and negative p waves in inferior leads (II, III, and aVF). Medical treatment provided control of the tachycardia episode. In this report, we conclude that patients with a diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy should be thoroughly investigated in terms of reversible arrhythmia causes.

Özet

Sürekli janksiyonel resiprokan taşikardi nadir bir supraventriküler taşikardidir. Taşikardinin sürekliliği dilate kardiyomiyopati gelişmesine neden olabilir ve bu hastalar yanlışlıkla idiyopatik dilate kardiyomiyopati tanısı alabilir. Elli üç günlük kız bebek terleme, hızlı nefes alıp verme ve taşikardi yakınması ile poliklinik başvurusu sonrasında miyokardit ön tanısıyla çocuk yoğun bakım ünitesine yatırıldı. Elektrokardiyografi incelemesinde 220/dk. hızında dar QRS'li taşikardi ve DII, DIII, aVF derivasyonlarında negatif p dalgaları izlendi. Tıbbi tedavi ile taşikardi atağı kontrol altına alındı. Dilate kardiyomiyopati tanısı olan hastalarda, geri döndürülebilir etiyolojilerden olması nedeniyle aritmilerin dikkatle taranması gerektiği kanaatindeyiz.
