In memory of tachycardia: A wide complex tachycardia in a young male

Abstract

Abstract We present a case of a 24‐year‐old male with palpitations and a wide complex tachycardia. Baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) after termination of tachycardia demonstrates a normal rhythm but with inferior/anterolateral T‐wave inversions (TWIs). Electrophysiologic study confirmed the diagnosis of posterior fascicular ventricular tachycardia successfully terminated by anatomic ablation of the left posterior fascicle. TWIs on the patient's baseline ECG were consistent with cardiac memory.
