[Arrhythmic cardiomyopathy. Case report].
An 11 year-old boy was admitted with incessant sinus node reentrant tachycardia and secondary dilated arrhythmic cardiomyopathy, treated by radiofrequency ablation. Two years later he was admitted with incessant automatic atrial tachycardia and arrhythmic cardiomyopathy; a second catheter ablation procedure failed, but the third one, performed four month later, was successfully and resulted in a restoration of a normal sinus rhythm and a complete regression of arrhythmic cardiomyopathy.
