摘要：
Ventricular tachycardia occurs infrequently in patients without structural heart disease. These tachycardias commonly originate from the right ventricular Outflow tract. However, the presence of more than one arrhythmogenic substrate in a patient without structural heart disease is rare. We report such a 48-year old patient with no structural heart disease who presented with three morphology wide QRS tachycardia. A brief review of the pathophysiology and management is discussed.
