Clinical data

Patient reports 3 episodes of paroxysmal tachycardia of up to 20 minutes, accompanied by precordial pain in the past 7 years, all with spontaneous reversal. Four years prior, the patient presented another tachycardia with signs of low output, including pallor, visual turbidity, cold extremities and mental confusion, requiring electrical reversion. On that occasion, ventricular tachycardia ablation in the right ventricular (RV) inflow tract through the right posterior accessory pathway was successfully performed. Ebstein’s anomaly diagnosis was given for the first time by echocardiography scan, at that time. Ever since, the patient remained asymptomatic, living a normal life and with no medication.

Physical examination: Good general condition, eupneic, acyanotic, normal pulses in the 4 limbs. Weight: 80 kg, Height: 180 cm, BP: 110 x 70 mmHg, HR: 70 bpm, Sat O₂ = 94%.
