May support monitoring for spontaneous resolution at adolescence in idiopathic pediatric VT; leaves open generalizability beyond this single case.
Case Report (n=1)
Repetitive paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia in a pediatric patient without structural heart disease may resolve spontaneously by adolescence.
Friedman et al. (1958) conducted a case report in Repetitive paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia (n=1). Quinidine sulfate was evaluated on Cessation of paroxysms. Spontaneous cessation of repetitive paroxysmal tachycardia occurred coincident with the onset of adolescence after several years of control with quinidine sulfate.
