title: [A rare association of aneurysm of the interatrial septum and ventricular tachycardia. Description of 2 cases].
abstract: Two patients with isolated atrial septum aneurysm and ventricular tachycardia are reported. In both patients ventricular tachycardia showed left bundle branch block pattern with right axis deviation. The ventricular origin of the arrhythmia was confirmed by electrophysiological study. The aneurysm of the interatrial septum was the only detectable cardiac abnormality. The possible relationship between the atrial abnormality and ventricular tachycardia is discussed.
