Abstract
Extrasystoles arising in the main stem of the bundle of His are generally regarded as very rare; only 7 examples have been published since their original description by Lewis in 1911 and 2 of these fail to satisfy rigid criteria for diagnosis. Four further examples, encountered in a relatively small series of tracings, are here presented and it is concluded that such extrasystoles are not so much rare as they are overlooked.Keywords
