BACKGROUND: Case reports have described the coexistence of ventricular tachycardia (VT) and supraventricular tachycardia in the same patient. This study examines the frequency of dual atrioventricular nodal (AVN) physiology, AVN echo beats, and atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) in patients with VT.
METHODS: Programmed atrial and ventricular stimulation was performed in 132 consecutive patients referred for electrophysiologic study of symptomatic VT. Of the 132, 99 patients had structural heart disease, and 33 patients had idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (IVT).
RESULTS: Among the 33 patients with IVT, 23 had dual AVN physiology. Compared with patients with structural heart disease undergoing VT ablation, dual AVN pathways (70% vs 27%, P < .0001), dual AVN pathways with echo beats (24% vs 8%, P = 0.03), and AVNRT (21% vs 1%, P = .0002) were more common in patients with IVT.
CONCLUSION: Dual AVN physiology and AVNRT appear to be associated with IVT. This finding suggests that patients with IVT should undergo a complete electrophysiologic evaluation, and the diagnosis of coexistent AVNRT should be considered in this population.
