title: Multiple circus movement tachycardias with multiple accessory pathways.
abstract: A patient with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome manifesting four types of tachycardia is described. The location and the participation during tachycardia of two different types of accessory atrioventricular pathways were documented during a programmed stimulation study. Unusual modes of initiation of tachycardias were observed, such as the initiation of an orthodromic circus movement tachycardia by an atrial premature beat that conducted in anterograde direction down the accessory pathway.
