[Paroxysmal AV tachycardia in triplets].
It is reported on triplet sisters with paroxysmal tachycardias. Two of them were enzygotic. For the two an AV-node longitudinal dissociation could be proved as cause of the tachycardia. This observation is regarded as proof for the existence of congenital anomalies of the AV-node as a possible cause of its longitudinal dissociation.
