Abstract
Electric injury can cause a variety of cardiac arrhythmias. Atrial fibrillation as a result of such injury is very rare. We present a case of a young asymptomatic patient who developed acute atrial fibrillation with antegrade conduction over the atrioventricular bypass tract and very high ventricular rate after accidental low voltage electric injury, which was reverted successfully by DC shock.Entities:
