Abstract
A 42-years-old woman presented with palpitation. Her symptoms aggravated since 2 years ago, and developed
palpitation and syncope during its last six months. Her symptoms continued despite the medical therapy. During
heart monitoring in CCU, she developed a narrow QRS complex tachycardia with rate of 150 beats/min. After
radiofrequency energy was done for her. No arrhythmia was induced after radiofrequency ablation. The patient
was discharged and during follow up is free of symptoms.
