Abstract
Electrocardiogram in a 15-year-old girl showed persistent supraventricular tachycardia at rates of 130 to 140 bpm. Electrophysiological study confirmed left atrial automatic tachycardia, which was transfered to sinus rhythm by intravenous infusion of aprindine (100 mg/10 min). Therefore, aprindine (60 mg/day) was administered orally, and neither recurrence of left atrial automatic tachycardia nor side effects were observed during subsequent follow-up period of 16 months.
