PJRT occurs predominantly in infants and children and is limited to small series in adults. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical presentation, electrophysiological characteristics, feasibility and safety of radiofrequency ablation, and the long-term prognosis in a large group of adult patients with the permanent form of junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT).
