Key result
A case of alternating bradycardia-tachycardia with paroxysmal Mobitz II A-V block and ventricular tachycardia was described in a patient with a normal resting electrocardiogram.
Case Report (n=1)
Highlights the importance of defining the cause of serious rhythm disturbances prior to therapy in unusual cases of bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Requires careful mechanism identification before therapy in atypical bradycardia-tachycardia cases; leaves open generalizability pending further evidence.
An unusual case of alternating bradycardia-tachycardia, paroxysmal Mobitz II A-V block and ventricular tachycardia is described. The patient presented with a normal resting (control) electrocardiogram and intracardiac conduction times (A-H and H-V intervals). The clinical evaluation, electrophysiology, and importance of defining the cause of serious rhythm disturbances prior to therapy are discussed.

Lister et al. (1978) conducted a case report in Bradycardia-Tachycardia Syndrome (n=1). A case of alternating bradycardia-tachycardia with paroxysmal Mobitz II A-V block and ventricular tachycardia was described in a patient with a normal resting electrocardiogram.
