title: Radiofrequency ablation of incessant atrial tachycardia in an infant.
abstract: Ectopic automatic atrial tachycardia, an uncommon type of supraventricular tachycardia in children and adults, has been reported to be resistant to medical therapy unlike reentrant supraventricular tachycardia. We report a case of incessant atrial tachycardia in an infant, which was successfully treated with radiofrequency catheter ablation.
