Implication
May inform ablation decisions in rare incessant non-reentrant SVT with cardiomyopathy; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.

Cite This Study
Maury et al. (2008) conducted a case report in Non-reentrant supraventricular tachycardia and tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (n=1). Radiofrequency (RF) ablation was evaluated on Reversibility of tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy. Radiofrequency ablation fully reversed tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy in a patient with incessant non-reentrant supraventricular tachycardia and apparent simultaneous Wenckebach sequences.
