Résumé

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) with ventriculoatrial (VA) block can represent a diagnostic challenge. We present a case of SVT where His-His interval shortening was repeatedly observed during episodes of VA block. This novel observation is more diagnostically suggestive of atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia, as opposed to orthodromic re-entry using a nodofascicular or nodoventricular pathway where a constant His-His is recorded during episodes of VA block.
