    Abstract

    The field of arrhythmias in children has recently seen major advances in several aspects, including diagnosis (event monitoring systems) and treatment (very effective acute and long-term medications) and, more importantly, in the definitive cure of supraventricular tachycardia with the use of catheter ablation techniques. These procedures are very successful and can be performed with a low complication rate. The indications for radiofrequency ablation are expanding and the technical aspects improving rapidly, so a larger number of patients will benefit from this curative treatment.
