However there is a scarcity of data regarding the long term outcome particularly with respect to quality of life QoL . Methods and Results In this retrospective single-center study 454 patients who underwent ablation of SVT between 2002 and 2007 received a detailed questionnaire addressing matters of QoL. The questionnaire was a modified version of the SF-36 Health Survey questionnaire and the Symptom Checklist - Frequency and Severity Scale. After a mean follow up of 4.5 1.3 years 309 68.1 of the contacted 454 patients 269 female 59.2 mean age 58 Z-6.5 completed the questionnaire. Despite of 27 of relapses in the study group 91.7 considered the procedure a long-term success. The remainder of patients experienced no change in 3.7 or worsening of 4.7 symptoms. There were no significant differences between the various types of SVT p 1 . QoL in patients with Atrio-Ventricular Nodal Reentry Tachycardia AVNRT
