A 50-yaer-old man with hypertension had been treated for supraventricular tachycardia with several medications for nine years. In 1990, he was started on amiodarone but a year later he developed side effects causing discontinuation of amiodarone. Because of his recurrent episodes of palpitations associated with near syncope, chest pain and shortness of breath, he underwent an electrophysiology study in 1992 that showed orthodromic AVRT with the presence of a concealed left-sided accessory bypass tract. Scheduled for radiofrequency ablation the following day, after catheters were placed and during mapping of the lateralmitral annulus, his tachycardia stopped abruptly without further inducability. Isoproterenol infusion during atrial and ventricular stimulation also failed to induce his original tachycardia. A year later, the patient presented with palpitations that felt different than his previous experiences. Work-up at that point only revealed a parasystolic focus on a 24-hour ECG monitoring without any form of supraventricular tachycardia. This represents a very unusual case by which the left lateral accessory pathway was mechanically ablated with catheter manipulation. This led to the disappearance of the orthodromic tachycardia that was easily induced before due to the activity of his parasytolic focus. The latter continued for the following four years but the patient has had no recurrences of his tachycardia.
