Abstrakt: The article presents a case study of a 73-year-old man who had an illness history of a typical Belhassen ventricular tachycardia. It states that administering him with metoprolol converted his cardiac dysrhythmia to normal sinus rhythm with a right bundle branch block and a slight left axis deviation. It also notes that the patient elected to continue his current pharmacological treatment and deferred a repeat electrophysiologic study.
