Sinoatrial reentry is an uncommon cause of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. This paper presents a case of supraventricular tachycardia, refractory to medical therapy, in which the sinus node formed part or all of the reentrant circuit. The mechanism of the arrhythmia was confirmed by catheter mapping during electrophysiological study and by intraoperative epicardial mapping. Cryosurgical ablation of the right atrium in the region of the sinus node has led to cure of her arrhythmia and emergence of a stable ectopic atrial pacemaker rhythm.
