Popis: International audience; Purpose of the study: Typical Atrioventricular (AV) Node Re-entrant Tachycardia (AVNRT) occurs in patients with dual AV nodal pathway, a rapid pathway used for retrograde conduction and a slow pathway used for the anterograde conduction. In sinus rhythm the patients have generally the signs of conduction through the rapid pathway with a normal or short PR interval. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of patients with 1st degree AV block and with AVNRT and their clinical characteristics.Methods: 1040 patients, 366 males, 665 females were admitted for typical AVNRT. They were aged from 6 to 90 years (mean age 50±19). Initial ECG and clinical data were collected. Electrophysiological study was systematic.Results: Spontaneous 1st degree AV Block (AVB) was rare and noted in 8 patients. The prevalence of the association 1st degree AV Block and AVNRT was 0.8%. AVB was suprahisian in 7 of 8 and infrahisian in one of them. Five patients complained of AVNRT at exercise. Two patients had an ischemic heart disease. Patients with AVB were significantly older (71.5±16 years) than patients without AVB (50±19) (p
