A case of sustained fetal atrial flutter at 25-week gestation: diagnostic challenges and therapeutic strategies.

Introduction: Sustained fetal tachycardia is an uncommon phenomenon in gestations (approximately 0.1%). Atrial flutter (AF) accounts for 10-30% of fetal tachyarrhythmias, which is characterized by a rapid atrial rate estimated at 300-600 beats per minute, associated with variable degrees of atrioventricular conduction.

Successful management of TSH-secreting adenoma misdiagnosed as hypothyroidism in 65-year-old male: A case report.
