Résumé

The decremental properties of the nodoventricular pathway (NVP) are uncertain. During short RP supraventricular tachycardia, a His-refractory premature ventricular contraction (PVC) consistently terminated the tachycardia without atrial capture immediately after the PVC. Whereas a slightly earlier PVC failed to reset the subsequent His but terminated the tachycardia without atrial capture one cycle later. These observations are diagnostic of slow-fast atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with a bystander concealed-NVP and can be explained by decremental properties in the NVP itself; greater prematurity of the PVC resulted in more decremental conduction over the NVP, causing the AVNRT termination one cycle later.
