A patient with sick sinus syndrome, atrial flutter and bidirectional ventricular tachycardia: Coincident or concomitant presentations?
Cardiol J 2007;14(6):585-588.
Abstract
Channelopathies are among the major causes of syncope or sudden cardiac death in patients
with structurally normal hearts. In these patients, the atrium, ventricle or both could be
affected and reveal different presentations. In this case, we present a patient with an apparently
structurally normal heart and recurrent syncope, presented as sick sinus syndrome with
atrial flutter and bidirectional ventricular tachycardia. (Cardiol J 2007; 14: 585-588).
