Unusual Cause of Bidirectional Ventricular Rhythm
Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BDVT), a rare ventricular arrhythmia, is commonly caused by digitalis toxicity or channelopathies and is rarely caused by aconite toxicity, myocarditis, infarction, or sarcoidosis.

Just Sinus Bradycardia or Something More Serious?
An asymptomatic 5-year-old girl presented with bradycardia during a routine well-child visit. Further evaluation revealed profound sinus bradycardia, exercise-induced bidirectional ventricular tachycardia, and supraventricular tachycardia.

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia: An exciting new era
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a highly malignant inheritable cardiac channelopathy. The past decade and a half has provided exciting new discoveries elucidating the genetic etiology and pathophysiology of CPVT.

Case report: Mexiletine suppresses ventricular arrhythmias in Andersen-Tawil syndrome
It is arduous to determine clinical solutions for Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) in patients intolerant of β-blocker. Here, we present the case of a 7-year-old boy with periodic paralysis and dysmorphic features who experienced syncope four times during ...

Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia in left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy [PDF]
A 29-year-old female with left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy presented a wide-QRS-complex tachycardia ( Figure 1B ) which was terminated by electrical cardioversion and sinus rhythm was restored ( Figure 1D ). An electrophysiological study was …

Bidirectional Ventricular Tachycardia in Acute Multivessel Myocardial Infarction
Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BVT) is a rare and unusual ventricular dysrhythmia that is characterized by a beat-to-beat alternation of the QRS axis. This can sometimes manifest as alternating left and right bundle branch blocks. To the best of our knowledge, there are two previous cases of BVT in the setting of type I myocardial infarction ...
