Abstract

A 13-year-old-girl presented with one episode of pre-syncope while standing in a train. Her ECG was suggestive of preexcitation. Echocardiography revealed structurally normal heart without any ventricular hypertrophy. During electrophysiology study, her ventriculo-atrial (VA) conduction was absent even on isoprenaline. However, a para-Hisian pacing maneuver (PHP) revealed consistent VA conduction with a nodal response. This finding indicated that the VA dissociation at baseline was at infra-Hisian (VH) level and conduction at HA level was intact. In addition, this finding is coherent with a speculation of a fasciculo-ventricular pathway (FVP) resulting in such an ECG pattern in her. Pacing from various atrial sites (right atrium, coronary sinus) exhibited nearly fixed preexcitation and short non-varying HV interval confirmatory of FVP. Testing for a PRKAG mutation was advised for her.

右心室心尖起搏时心室-心房传导缺失，但准希氏起搏时出现结节反应 - 其机制是什么？

一名 13 岁女孩在站在火车上时出现了一次晕厥前兆。她的心电图显示为预激。超声心动图显示心脏结构正常，没有任何心室肥大。在电生理学检查中，即使使用异丙肾上腺素，她的心室-心房（VA）传导也不存在。然而，进行副希氏起搏操作（PHP）后，发现 VA 传导一致，并伴有结节反应。这一发现表明，基线时的 VA 解离是在髂下水平（VH），而 HA 传导完好无损。此外，这一发现还与导致她出现这种心电图模式的束状室性通路（FVP）的推测相一致。来自不同心房部位（右心房、冠状窦）的起搏显示出几乎固定的预激和短的无变化 HV 间期，证实了 FVP。建议对她进行 PRKAG 基因突变检测。
