  2. Nabothian cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nabothian_cyst

    A nabothian cyst (or nabothian follicle) [1] is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. They are most often caused when stratified squamous epithelium of the ectocervix (portion nearest to the vagina) grows over the simple columnar epithelium of the endocervix (portion nearest to the uterus). This tissue growth can block the cervical ...

    For TIC due to atrial fibrillation, rate control, rhythm control, and RF catheter ablation can be effective to control the tachyarrhythmia and improve left ventricular systolic function. [ 5 ] [ 9 ] For TIC due to atrial flutter, rate control is often difficult to achieve, and RF catheter ablation has a relatively high success rate with a low ...

    Individuals with LGL syndrome do not carry an increased risk of sudden death. The only morbidity associated with the syndrome is the occurrence of paroxysmal episodes of tachycardia which may be of several types, including sinus tachycardia, atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, or atrial flutter. [4]

    Otherwise synchronized cardioversion is the treatment. [4] Future episodes can be prevented by catheter ablation. [3] About 2.3 per 1000 people have paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. [5] Problems typically begin in those 12 to 45 years old. [3] [5] Women are more often affected than men. [3]

  7. Wandering atrial pacemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandering_atrial_pacemaker

    Wandering atrial pacemaker (WAP) is an atrial rhythm where the pacemaking activity of the heart originates from different locations within the atria. [1] This is different from normal pacemaking activity, where the sinoatrial node (SA node) is responsible for each heartbeat and keeps a steady rate and rhythm.

  8. Paroxysmal tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paroxysmal_tachycardia

    Paroxysmal tachycardia is a form of tachycardia which begins and ends in an acute (or paroxysmal) manner. It is also known as Bouveret-Hoffmann syndrome. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

  9. Atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrioventricular_reentrant...

    Atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT), or atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia, is a type of heart arrhythmia with an abnormally fast rhythm (tachycardia); it is classified as a type of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT).
