Abstract

We report the case of a 59-year old patient with a history of orthotopic heart transplantation, who was referred to us because of recurrent syncope due to atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. This case report is one of few in the literature describing an invasive treatment approach to a classical supraventricular tachycardia attributable to a pre-existing substrate of the donor’s heart.
