摘要
To the Editor： Radiofrequency catheter ablation （RFCA） is the first-line therapy for symptomatic paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, However, several life-threatening complications remain underestimated. Herein, we report an atypical case of RFCA complicated by acute pulmonary embolism （PE）, an extremely rare but potentially fatal complication. After 3 months ofanticoagulation therapy, PE was treated successfully.
