Abstract
The common electrocardiographic abnormalities of hypothyroidism are sinus bradycardia, low voltage
complexes, prolonged Q-T interval, and low to flat T waves. The initial presentation with supraventricular tachycardia is
very rare and unusual. We report a case of primary hypothyroidism that presented with SVT as initial presentation who
recovered with treatment.
