الوصف: Catheter ablation is an effective treatment for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). However, the characteristics of extremely late (3 years) recurrences of AVNRT after a successful initial ablation are not fully elucidated. We aimed to explore the electrophysiological characteristics of extremely late recurrences of AVNRT after a successful ablation.From 1991 to 2018, 3311 patients (mean age: 48.7 ± 17.4 years; men: 1328 [40.1%]) who underwent catheter ablation for AVNRT were investigated. Baseline characteristics of the patients, recurrence status, and detailed electrophysiological parameters of the index and repeat ablation procedures were obtained for analysis.After a mean follow-up period of 129.5 ± 58.0 months, 65 (2.0%) patients underwent repeat ablation for recurrences of AVNRT, of whom 17 (0.5%) presented with extremely late recurrences. The incidence of transient AV block was significantly higher in patients with extremely late recurrences (5.9%) than in those without recurrences (1.9%) but lower than that in patients with recurrences within3 years (12.5%, P .001). In addition, among patients with extremely late recurrences of AVNRT, the atrial-His bundle interval was significantly longer (99.1 ± 23.4 vs. 76.5 ± 13.1 ms, P .01) and the need for intravenous isoproterenol and/or atropine for the induction of AVNRT (88.2% vs. 47.1%, P = .03) was higher in the repeat ablation procedure than in the index ablation procedure.Recurrences of AVNRT can occur 3 years after a successful initial ablation. The electrophysiological features of the index and repeat ablation procedures differed between patients with extremely late recurrences of AVNRT and those with recurrences within3 years.
