Abstract
Double tachycardia is defined as the coexistence of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). In clinical practice, incidentally encountered double tachycardia is hard to diagnose during electrophysiology study without prior documentation of both tachycardia. SVT can be confused with VT because SVT sometimes show an aberrant conduction depending on heart rate. In the present case, a patient with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome (WPW) syndrome exhibited atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT) via concealed bypass tract and idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia (ILVT), which were difficult to discriminate due to similar cycle length and interrelationship.
