An atypical behavior of the postextrasystolic pauses was observed in a 19-yr-old patient studied by His bundle electrography and programmed premature atrial stimulation. In the normal case there is a prolongation of the postextrasystolic pauses compared to the spontaneous cycle length allowing calculation of sinoatrial conduction time (SACT). In this case there were constant postextrasystolic pauses during the whole range of prematurity which were identical to the spontaneous cycle length. It is suggested that the catheter tip was accidentally positioned at the sinus node itself. The lengths of the spontaneous cycles, of the return cycles, and of the postreturn cycles showed no significant differences. Thus, one may assume that sinus node automaticity was not influenced in this case.
