摘要
A 3-year-old girl presented with a febrile illness complicated by right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia, which persisted after resolution of the presumed viral infection. The tachycardia was intermittent, but was significantly exacerbated by exercise. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the ectopic focus was successfully performed and the child remains free of tachycardia 12 months later. A review of the literature suggests that RFA in children is increasingly seen as a safe and convenient option for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia, whereas the management of ectopic ventricular tachycardia in pediatric practice has not been well defined.
