We describe a case of an irregular pacemaker circus movement tachycardia in a patient with the Wolff‐Parkinson‐White syndrome and a normally functioning A‐V universal (DDD) pacemaker (Cordis Sequicor 233 D). The mechanism of the artificial circus movement tachycardia, which uses the pacemaker as the anterograde limb and a septally located accessory atrioventricular pathway as the retrograde limb, is discussed.
