The most common type of supraventricular tachycardia in children is atrioventricular reentry tachycardia.  This is a cross sectional descriptive study including fifty patients in the pediatric arrhythmology clinic. Demographic & clinical data were collected as well as results of ECG, 24 hour Holter recording and  echocardiography.
