Abstract
Junctional ectopic tachycardia is a very rare arrhythmia often due to cardiac surgery, acute rheumatic heart disease, digitalis intoxication, or myocardial infarction. Sometimes no cause can be determined and the patient may be otherwise healthy. We report a case of sustained junctional ectopic tachycardia controlled by administration of intravenous verapamil in a patient without demonstrable heart disease.
